Lyrics

F#m
                            F#m
I tiptoed past her mamaâs window

[Verse 1]
I slipped through the gate
E                           F#m
 I danced around a sleeping watchdog
Up the fire escape
E                        A
 But when I got up to her window
F#m                         E
   I could see she wasnât there
                          A
I guess she slipped out to the meadow
F#m                          E
   And so I went to meet her there
                           F#m
I climbed upon the highest tower

[Verse 2]
I looked down to the sea
E                               F#m
 The burning flames and glowing embers
                E
As far as I can see
                            A
Somehow I know Iâll never find her
F#m                              E
   Iâll probably die along the way
                                   A
Thatâs why I think Iâll run for cover
F#m                             E
   And live to fight another day

[Chorus]
               A      F#m             E
Iâll never be the hero that you need
Give up on me,
A         F#m                  E    A
 Iâm no hero canât you see? Baby

[Solo]
F#m E A F#m
E
                            F#m
And all is lost if Iâm not   careful

[Verse 3]
I havenât slept in days
E                            F#m
 The game is hot and Iâm so   hungry
                            E
And it could all go to waste
                              A
Then someone tripped upon the cable
F#m                                 E
   And pulled the plug out from the wall
                            A
And as my score goes back to zero
F#m                                E
   This time Iâve really lost it all

[Chorus]
               A      F#m             E
Iâll never be the hero that you need
Give up on me,
A         F#m                  E
 Iâm no hero canât you see?
                     A
Hero canât you see?

[Outro]
F#m E                      A
     Iâll never be the hero
F#m
E               A      F#m             E
 Iâll never be the hero that you need
Give up on me,
A         F#m                  E Esus4
 Iâm no hero canât you see?
E                          F#m
 When I tiptoe past her window
