[Verse]
C         G            C
We get to break out of prison
C                                G
Make love to our best friend's wife
G
Have a beer for breakfast in Boston
             G7           C
Drink rum in Jamaica that night

[Verse]
C
We get to tell all our secrets
C                C7    F
In a code no one understands
G
We get to shoot all the bad guys
G             G7            C
But never get blood on our hands

[Chorus]
F
We're heroes, we're schemers,
F
We're drunks and we're dreamers
C
We're lovers and sometimes we're fighters
F
We're students, we're teachers
F
We're the devil, we're preachers
C                                   G
We're true love but mostly one nighters
C         G6  C
We're the songwriters

[Verse]
C
Half the world thinks we're crazy
C                          G
The other half wants to be us
G7            G             C
And they're jealous because we get to hang out
C               G6                 C
In the back of some big stars tour bus

[Bridge]
C
We're old boots and tee shirts and blue jeans
C                              F
We're capos and strings and E Chords
G7                  G
We only dress up in November
C                         Gaug   C
When they hand out some writers awards

[Chorus]
F
We're heroes, we're schemers,
F
We're drunks and we're dreamers
C                 G              C
We're lovers and sometimes we're fighters
F
We're the truth, we're the lies
F
We're stupid, we're wise
Cmaj7                              G
We're true love but mostly one nighters
C          Gmaj7   C
We're the songwriters

[Verse]
F                   G             C
We ride bridges, we cross 'em and burn 'em
C                                 G7
Teach lessons but don't bother to learn 'em
C
Our mamas don't know what we're doing
C                         G
Why we stay out all night long
G
I told mine I was a drug dealer
 G                          G7        C
She said thank god you ain't writin' songs

[Chorus]
F
We're heroes, we're schemers,
F
We're drunks and we're dreamers
C                 G              C
We're lovers and sometimes we're fighters
F
We're the truth, we're the lies
F
We're stupid, we're wise
C                                 G
We're true love but mostly one nighters
