Lyrics David Crosby

David Crosby

Hero

It was one of those great stories

That you can't put down at night

The hero knew what he had to do

and he wasn't afraid to fight

Villain goes to ja--------- il while the hero goes free

I wish it were that simple for me

And the reason that she loves him is the reason I love him too

And he never wondered what was right or wrong

He just knew he just knew

Shadows and shade mix together at dawn

But by the time you catch them simplicities gone

So we sort thru the pieces

my friends and I

Searchng thru the darkness to find the breaks in the sky

And the reason that she loves him is the reason I love him too

And he never wondered what was right or wrong

He just knew he just knew

Eb Ebsus/Db Eb Ebsus/Db

And we wonder yes we wonder

Eb Ebsus Db Eb Ebsus/Db

How do you make sense of this

The hero kills the maiden with his kiss with his kiss

Eb Ab9 Ab Eb Eb Ab9 Ab Eb

It was one of those great stories

That you can't put down at night

The hero knew what he had to do and he wasn't afraid to fight

Villain goes to ja--------- il while the hero goes free

I wish it were that simple for me
