WORKING CLASS HERO
(Electric Fire)


^Ami As soon as your born they ^G make you feel ^Ami small
^Ami By giving you nothing inst ^G ead of it ^Ami all
^Ami 'Til the pain is so big you feel ^G nothing at ^Ami all
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be

^Ami They hurt you at home and they ^G hit you at ^Ami school
^Ami They hate you if you're clever and they ^G despise a ^Ami fool
^Ami 'Til you're so f***ing crazy you can't ^G follow their ^Ami rules
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be

^Ami When they've tortured and scared you for ^G twenty odd ^Ami years
^Ami Then they expect you to ^G pick a ^Ami career
^Ami When you can't really function you're ^G so full of ^Ami fear
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be

^Ami Keep you doped with religion and ^G sex and ^Ami TV
^Ami And you think you're so clever and ^G classless and ^Ami free
^Ami But you're still f***ing peasants as ^G far as I can ^Ami see
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be

^Ami There's room at the top they are ^G telling you ^Ami still
^Ami But first you must learn how to ^G smile as you ^Ami kill
^Ami If you want to be like the ^G folks on the ^Ami hill
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be
^Ami A working class hero is ^G something to ^Ami be

^Ami If you want to be a hero well ^G just follow ^Ami me
^Ami If you want to be a hero well ^G just follow ^Ami me
