Even Heroes Have To Die

C   C
       Well!

  D                            G                            C
Didn't you look sharp in your boots when you met me on the path? Oh
 D                       G                     C
Two tone to downtown Beirut but only half way back. Oh
Em                                 G
Stealing bits of wisdom from the shelf
Em                                  C      D
Turned prisons into prisms on the self. Oh Oh


 D                                G                    C
And what do they know about the spring time of me and you? Ooh
 D                        G                          C
Born in the midst of the long hot summer we lived through. Ooh
 Em                              G
Did they see you run for every rhyme?
 Em                             C      D
Did we run for running out of time? Oh Oh


Chorus:
          D     G         D    G
When even heroes have to
D      G
die i i i i                                (hah)
D               G
No one lives forever, love
D            G
And no one's wise to try

D5             E5
Oh oh oh       Ah ah ah
D5             E5
Oh oh oh       Ah ah ah     etc.

Play D5 / E5 through the solo


 Em                            G
Adding our own wisdom to the shelf
 Em                              C        D
Stealing bits of paper, we had health. Oh Oh

 D                   G                        C
Working away did we miss the passing of the time? Oh
 D                         G                                   C
In your own flame you can wither, but your passions still outshine. Oh
 Em                              G
Did you read the writing on the wall?
 Em                         C      D
Prophesying a doom upon us all. Oh Oh

Chorus:
          D     G         D    G
When even heroes have to
D      G
die i i i i
D               G
No one lives forever, love
D            G
And no one's wise to try


D5             E5
Oh oh oh       Ah ah ah
D5             E5
Oh oh oh       Ah ah ah     etc.


 Em                               G
But hidden in the writing on the wall
 Em                           C
Many are the beauties of the fall.
