Heroes by James Blunt
Heroes
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Verse 1]
Am
You can see it on her face
F
Her red eyes say she's not safe
G
How should she know what it means
Em
She is only just a teen
Am
Under her duvet's where she hides
F
To block the screaming late at night
G
She can't remember life before
Em
Mama and Daddy went to war
[Chorus]
C
All little girls are full of confusion
Em
Cry all you want cause you're only human
Am
Was all the love just an illusion?
G
Daddy's not coming home
C
Mama's asleep and she smells of whiskey
Em
Promise that won't be you when you're 50
Am G
Cry before the guilty clap your wings
F G
Cause all your heroes
C
Are skin and bones
[Verse 2]
Am
Packed the small bag of things she loves
F
Deep inside she blames herself
G
She has nowhere else to go
Em
But that sounds better than what she knows
Am
And as she steps into the dark
F
Dirty hair and heavy heart
G
Cold, cold air inside her lungs
Em
Catch a snowflake on her tongue
[Chorus]
C
All little girls are full of confusion
Em
Cry all you want cause you're only human
Am
Was all the love just an illusion?
G
Daddy's not coming home
C
Mama's asleep and she smells of whiskey
Em
Promise that won't be you when you're 50
Am G
Cry before the guilty clap your wings
F G
Cause all your heroes
C
Are skin and bones
[Bridge]
Dm
And as I heard you shut the door
F
Went through the window and I saw
C G
The footsteps of my big sister in the snow
Dm
Since then not a single day has passed
F
Where I don't say your name and ask
C G
Where, where did you go?
[Intrumental]
Am G
C G Am Em
[Outro]
C
All little girls are full of confusion
Em
Cry all you want cause you're only human
Am
Was all the love just an illusion?
G
Daddy's not coming home
C
Mama's asleep and she smells of whiskey
Em
Promise that won't be you when you're 50
Am G
Cry before the guilty clap your wings
F G
Cause all your heroes
C
Are skin and bones
