Intro:
Am
So you wanna be the hero, kid?

Be adored by everyone?

Verse 1:
      C
Cause no one can forget you

When you're the reason they have won
             F
You want the fame, the attention

But more than anything
                 G
You're scared of fading to the background
         G
Like you didn't mean a thing
     C
It's nice to be liked

And it's nicer to be known
         F
But just because there are more people

Doesn't mean that you're not alone
Am
So you wanna be the hero?

Baby, don't we all
              G
But you're forgetting the thing about heroes, kid
     G
They always have to fall

Chorus:
      Am
So be careful what you wish for
      Am
It'll certainly come true
     C
Your world will tear apart till the sky is no longer blue
F
You can dream of glory, of love, and laughter
         G
But what you need to understand
          G
Is heroes don't get a happily ever after

Refrain:
Am
So you wanna be the hero?

And pretend you're something more

Verse 2:
    C
But face it it's a ruse

You're a scared child at the core
           F
You're not fighting any battles

Except the ones inside your head
       G
You're nothing but a coward
   G
No idea of what's ahead
     C
I've been there, I've felt that

So trust me when I say
         F
It's not all that it's cracked up to be

We're better off this way
Am
So you wanna be the hero?

Run around and play pretend?
              G
But you're forgetting the thing about heroes, kid
     G
They all end up dead

Chorus:
      Am
So be careful what you wish for
      Am
It'll certainly come true
     C
Your world will tear apart till the sky is no longer blue
F
You can dream of glory, of love, and laughter
         G
But what you need to understand
          G
Is heroes don't get a happily ever after, after

Woah oh

Verse 3:
C
Too many people have told you "you're brave"
     Em
It's gone to your head
C
So don't mistake this all for strength
Em                                G        G        G
You had no options to choose from instead, instead, instead

Chorus:
   Am
Be careful what you wish for
      Am
It'll certainly come true
     C
Your world will tear apart till the sky is no longer blue
F
You can dream of glory, of love, and laughter
         G
But what you need to understand
          G
Is heroes don't
   G
We don't
    G
You won't

Outro:
       Am
So you still wanna be the hero?

Refuse to heed my advice
   Am
Go ahead and play the hero

Soon you'll have to pay the price
