Not For Heroes

Db
There are songs about the heroes and
 the great things they have done
Gb                                
And the hell they went through to 
          Db
get this far

But this song is for the cowboy who 
never been a hero
        Eb                         
And the hard times he goes through 
             Ab
all the while
Db
He gives it all he's got but it's 
never quite enough
   Gb                              
Oh the Lord and him alone know how 
            Db
he's tried

But he'll try and try again although
 he'll never win
                                Ab 
And all that he's got goin' is his 
               Db
pride

Gb                          
He's never been a hero and he 
                   Db
probably never be one

      Gb                       Eb 
But in his heart he knows he gave 
                     Ab
his all
      Gb                           
My hat goes off to you my friend 
                  Db
and to the champ you might have been
Gb                    Ab         
If Lady Luck had smiled on you at
              Db
 all

D
The bones are just too tough and he 
doesn't have enough
G                                 
Of what it takes to make it to the
         D
 top
D                               D
What makes him want to go well Lord 
I guess I know
D                       A        
He loves it too damn much to ever
            D
 stop

D
He bites the dust once more gets up 
to hear no score
G                                 
Then he stumbles to the chutes to 
                  D
ease the pain
D                                 
And underneath his breath he 
              D
cusses to himself
D                          A     
I'll ride him if I get the chance
        D
 again

G       D
He's never been a hero and he 
probably never be one
G                  E             
But in his heart he knows he gave
   A
 his all
   G    D
My hat goes off to you my friend and
 to the champ you might have been
    G                 A           
If Lady Luck had smiled on you at 
              D
