Capo on the second fret
[Verse]
Asus2As soon as you're born Gthey make you feel Asus2small
Asus2By giving you no Gtime instead of it Asus2all
Asus2Till the pain is so Gbig you feel nothing at Asus2all
[Hook]
Asus2A working class Ghero is Dsomething to Asus2be
A working class hero is something to be
[Verse]
Asus2They hurt you at Ghome and they hit you at Asus2school
Asus2They hate you if you're Gclever and they despise a Asus2fool
Asus2Till you're so Gfucking crazy you can't follow their Asus2rules
[Hook]
Asus2A working class Ghero is Dsomething to Asus2be
A working class hero is something to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Asus2When they've tortured Gand scared you for twenty odd Asus2years
Asus2Then they expect Gyou to pick a Asus2career
Asus2When you can't really Gfunction you're so full of Asus2fear
[Chorus]
Asus2A working class Ghero is Dsomething to Asus2be
A working class hero is something to be
[Verse]
Asus2Keep you doped with Greligion and sex and Asus2TV
Asus2And you think you're so Gclever and classless and Asus2free
Asus2But you're still fucking Gpeasants as far as I can Asus2see
[Hook]
Asus2A working class Ghero is Dsomething to Asus2be
A working class hero is something to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Asus2There's room at the Gtop they are telling you Asus2still
Asus2But first you must Glearn how to smile as you Asus2kill
Asus2If you want to be like the Gfolks on the Asus2hill
[Chorus]
Asus2A working class Ghero is Dsomething to Asus2be
A working class hero is something to be
Asus2If you want to Gbe a hero well Djust follow Asus2me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
