Working Class Hero

 Bm                          A             Bm
As soon as you're born they make you feel small
                         A          Bm
By giving you no time instead of it all
     A         Bm
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

    Bm           A        Em          Bm
A working class hero is something to be
    Bm           A        Em          Bm

  Bm              A             Em            Bm
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
            A         Bm
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
           A            Bm
 Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules

Bm           A        Em          Bm

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
                         A        Bm
Then they expect you to pick a career
        A           Bm
When you can't really function you're so full of fear

    Bm           A        Em          Bm

          Bm          A         Em       Bm
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
                         A          Bm
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
                          A          Bm
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see

    Bm           A        Em          Bm

There's room at the top they are telling you still
    A            Bm
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
   A            Bm
If you want to be like all the folks on the hill
