Workin Class Hero Chords & Lyrics - John Lennon

[Am]As soon as you're born they [G]make you feel [Am]small
By giving you no time ins[G]tead of it [Am]all
Till the pain is so big you feel n[G]othing at [Am]all

A wo[Am]rking class hero is so[G]mething to [Am]be
A wo[Am]rking class hero is s[G]omething to[Am] be

T[Am]hey hurt you at home and they h[G]it you at sc[Am]hool
They hate you if you're clever and they d[G]espise a f[Am]ool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't f[G]ollow their r[Am]ules

A wo[Am]rking class hero is so[G]mething to [Am]be
A wo[Am]rking class hero is s[G]omething to[Am] be

W[Am]hen they've tortured and scared you for t[G]wenty odd y[Am]ears
Then they expect you to p[G]ick a car[Am]eer
When you can't really function you're [G]so full of f[Am]ear

A wo[Am]rking class hero is so[G]mething to [Am]be
A wo[Am]rking class hero is s[G]omething to[Am] be

Keep you d[Am]oped with religion and s[G]ex and T[Am]V
And you think you're so c[G]lever and c[Am]lassless and free
But you're still fucking p[G]easants as [Am]far as I can see

A wo[Am]rking class hero is so[G]mething to [Am]be
A wo[Am]rking class hero is s[G]omething to[Am] be

T[Am]here's room at the top they are t[G]elling you s[Am]till
But first you must learn how to s[G]mile as you k[Am]ill
If you want to be like the f[G]olks on the h[Am]ill

A wo[Am]rking class hero is so[G]mething to [Am]be
A wo[Am]rking class hero is s[G]omething to[Am] be

If you [Am]want to be a hero well [G]just follow [Am]me
If you [Am]want to be a [G]hero [D]just follow [Am]me
