[Verse 1]
D
Standing here like I'm supposed to say something
F#m
Don't hold your breath, I never said I'd save you, honey
G
And I don't want your money. If I was you, I'd run from me
A
or rip me open. You'll see you're not the only one who's hopeless
D
Be sure to put your faith in something more
F#m
I'm just a girl and you're not as alone as you feel
G
We all got problems, don't we? We all need heroes, don't we?
A
But rest assured, there's not a single person here who's worthy
[Pre-Chorus]

[Verse 2]
D
Oh, it's such a long and awful lonely fall
F#m
Down from this pedestal that you keep putting me on
G
What if I fall on my face? What if I make a mistake?
A
If it's okay a little grace would be appreciated
D
Remember how we used to like ourselves?
F#m
What little light that's left, we need to keep it sacred
G
I know that you're afraid to let all the dark escape ya
A
But we can let the light illuminate these hopeless places
[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, no, I ain't your hero

You're wasting all your faith on me

Think it's safe to say your savior doesn't look a thing like me
[Pre-Chorus]

La, la la la la la la
