Hero In Our House

         F
I really miss her
                  C
That's her on the porch
                          G
Right there, holding my sister
                       C
Used to wake me up for school
               F
Helped put on my clothes
             C
Lunch in the fridge
                     G        C
Wrapped in foil to stay cold
                       F
And then she walked me out
               C
The hero in my house


[Chorus]
       F
Now my heart
                 Am
It's locked in a cage
                 C
Thrown into the river
                  G
I can't help this rage
            F  N.C.
Sometimes I wonder
                          Am
What she's doing up there now
                      F
Do they see her like we do?
    G           C
The hero in our house


[Verse 2]
                        C
Yeah we're all a little numb
                   F
That's not the intention
                   C
The things that we saw
                        G
Just hurt too much to mention
               C
I hurt for the pain

              F
Hurt and I'm grieving
              C
Oddest thing is
                        G     C
There's just no getting even
                  F
Her body took her out
                C
The hero in our house


[Chorus]
         F
Now this heart
                 Am
It's locked in a cage
                 C
Thrown into the river
                  G
I can't help this rage
            F  N.C.
Sometimes I wonder
                          Am
What she's doing up there now
                      F
Do they see her like we do?
    G           C
The hero in our house

[Verse 3]
                        C
Some things you can't forget
                      F
Some folks you don't either
              C
Can try to outrun pain
                       G
You stop and feel the fever
              C
I need to get drunk
             F
Feeling so crazy
                 C
I need to get work done
                      G   C
But then I just get lazy
                    F
If she could see me now
                C
The hero in our house
                  F
It really gets me down
               C
It really bums me out


[Chorus]
         F
Now this heart
                 Am
It's locked in a cage
                C
Thrown into the river
                  G
I can't help this rage
                F  N.C.
But sometimes I wonder
                          Am
What she's doing up there now
                      F
Do they see her like we do?
    G           C
The hero in our house

                        C
There was a hero in our house
                F
Sent down from heaven
              C
Then she went back
                        G
'Fore the age of sixty-seven
                       C
But she told us all goodbye
              F
Told us she was proud
    C                   F
And that's how she went out
    G           C
The hero in our house
