Tom: Bm
E A E A
E A E A
[Verse]
E A E A
I can't believe that it was good for anyone, to me worth the wait
E A
I doubt that anybody got their money's worth
E G
But the attention sure felt great
G/F# G6 G/F# G G/F# G6 G/F#
With all eyes upon me, some filled with tears, some couldn't see
[Chorus]
G F#
It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me
B A
Creep from the cradle, but a hero's what I wanna be
G F#
Keep it moving people cause there's nothing more for you to see
B A G F#
I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I wanna be yeah, oh yeah
[Verse]
E A
Love me, love me sweet cowardice
E A
Now that the thrill is mine for the moment
E A
We really didn't need another suicide
E G G/F# G6 G/F#
Or a song explaining why, but it's not dignified
G G/F# G6 G/F#
But I can't seem to kiss it goodbye
[Chorus]
G F#
It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me
B A
Creep from the cradle, but a hero's what I wanna be
G F#
Keep it moving people cause there's nothing more for you to see
B A G F#
I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I wanna be yeah, oh yeah
[Bridge]
B A E G F#
B A E G F#
B A E G F#
G F#
[Chorus]
G F#
It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me
B A
Creep from the cradle, but a hero's what I wanna be
G F#
Keep it moving people cause there's nothing more for you to see
B A
I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I wanna be
G F#
Erase this disaster even faster than you came to see
B A
A creep from the cradle and a hero driven wannabe
G F#
For your abuse, but not intended for internal use
B A
I'm just a jerk, but a hero's what I want to be
[Outro]
G F# B A
It burned like a cancer when the answer did occur to me
G F# B A
Creep from the cradle, but a hero's what I wanna be
G F#
Yeah, oh yeah …
