[Intro]
D#m


[Verse]
                             C#             D#m
As soon as you're born, they make you feel small
                          C#          D#m
By giving you no time, instead of it all
                                  C#            D#m
'Til the pain is so big, you feel nothing at all.


[Chorus]
                      C#               D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be
              C#       G#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be


[Verse]
                               C#          D#m
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
                                        C#         D#m
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool,
                                       C#            D#m
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules.


[Chorus]
                      C#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be
              C#       G#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be


[Verse]
                                         C#          D#m
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
                        C#      D#m
Then they expect you to pick a career,
                                         C#          D#m
When you can't really function you're so full of fear.


[Chorus]
                      C#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be
              C#       G#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be


[Verse]
                                 C#       D#m
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV,
                                   C#             D#m
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
                                     C#            D#m
But you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see.


[Chorus]
                      C#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be
              C#       G#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be


[Verse]
                                             C#     D#m
There's room at the top they are telling you still,
                                C#            D#m
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
                           C#            D#m
If you want to be like the folks on the hill.


[Chorus]
                      C#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be
              C#       G#              D#m
Working Class Hero is somethin' to be


[Outro]
                             C#           D#m
If you wanna be a hero, well just follow me
                             C#           G#
If you wanna be a hero, well just follow me
