[Verse 1]

D
When I was a kid I thought I'd save the world
A/C#
Runnin' 'round and chasin' all the criminals
Bm
Swingin' on a web, flyin' in the sky
A [riff A]
Shootin' lasers from my eyes

[Verse 2]

D
But now I know it never was my destiny
A/C#
It's not my place in life, not who I'm meant to be
Bm
And I don't need the glory, I don't need the fame
A [riff A]
And I don't wanna wear this cape


[Pre-chorus 1]

Bm
'Cause on the inside
A/C#
I know it won't last
D
On the inside
E
I'm an outcast


[Chorus 1]

D
Well, everybody needs a hero
F#m
But I'm not everybody else
Bm
I walk alone
Yeah, I walk alone
A/C#           D
Yeah, I walk alone, yeah

D [second guitar does riff B]
Y'know I tried to be your hero
F#m
But I was lying to myself
Bm
I walk alone
Yeah, I walk alone
A/C#           D
Yeah, I walk alone, yeah


[Verse 3]

D
They build you up and then they gonna tear you down
A/C#
They love you then they hate you if you wear a crown
Bm
It's not that I don't love to solve a mystery,
A [riff A]
But life is hard enough with one identity


[Verse 4]

D
If silence is the voice of the new generation
A/C#
Then I could live up to all of your expectations
Bm
I'd hammer down hard like I'm Iron Fist
A [riff A]
Then disappear like I don't exist


[Pre-chorus 2]

Bm [riff C]
And on the inside
A/C#
I know it won't last
D
On the inside
E
I'm an outcast


[Chorus 2]

D [riff B through the entire chorus, ends on a D octave before repeat]
Well, everybody needs a hero
F#m
But I'm not everybody else
Bm
I walk alone
Yeah, I walk alone
A/C#           D
Yeah, I walk alone, yeah

D
Y'know I tried to be your hero
F#m
But I was lying to myself
Bm
I walk alone
Yeah, I walk alone
A/C#           D
Yeah, I walk alone, yeah
