C G 

[Verse]
       C       G            F          C
with a bag , a bottle, and this old   guitar
                     G             F     C
in the back of some  bus  on the  road
               G                F           C
im living  the high life, with nothing to  show
                  G         C
but a love thats letting me go

[Chorus]
F                 G         C
your heroes turn out to be a*****es
     F              C                   B/A      G
the line that your chaising, in the tunnle, is a train
C          G     C          F             C
singers in key, guitars in tune, but the song still   
 G         C
slipping  away    -steel solo-

        C               G             F            C
oh the lights, of the city, paint a stage,in the night,
                               G
for two hearts, breaking in time,
 C                                F           C
wild horses are cursed,but then freedom and mind,
                     G        C
and the hunger left  burning inside.

[Chorus]
F                 G         C
your heroes turn out to be a*****es
     F              C                 B/A      G
the line in the tunnle that your chaising is a train
C          G     C          F             C
singers in key, guitars in tune, but the song still   
 G         C
slipping  away 

      F         G             C
then slowley, nothing, else matters,
        F             C             G
as the white and the black become grey
