-------------   Lyrics by Peart

[Gm] [F] [Bbsus2] [Csus2] [Gm] [Gm/A] [F] verse 1:

[Gm]I knew he was [F]different in his [Bbsus2]sexuality

[Gm]I went to his [Gm/A]parties as the [F]straight minority

He [Gm]never seemed a [F]threat to my [Bbsus2]masculinity

He [Gm]only intro[Gm/A]duced me to a [F]wider reality

[Ebsus2] As the [Gm]years went by[F] we drif[Bbsus2]ted apart

When I [Gm]heard that he was [Gm/A]gone I felt a [Dm]shadow cross [Csus2]my heart[Bbsus2]

chorus1:

But he's nobody's He[Dm]ro

- Saves a drowning [Csus2]child

- Cures a [Am]wasting disease[G]

He[F]ro

Am < -- I hear a Dm here... Z.

- Lands a crippled airplane

- Solves great [Csus2]mysteries[G]

He[Dm]ro

- Not the handsome [Csus2]actor

who plays the [Am]hero's role[G]

He[F]ro

- Not the glamour [Dm]girl

who'd love to [Csus2]sell her soul

If [Am]anybody's [G]buying No[Dm]body's Hero

verse2:

I [Gm]didn't know the [F]girl but I [Bbsus2]knew her family

[Gm]All their lives were [Gm/A]shattered in a [F]nightmare of brutality

They [Gm]tried to carry [F]on, tried to [Bbsus2]bear the agony

[Gm]Tried to hold some [Gm/A]faith in the [F]goodness of humanity

[Ebsus2] As the [Gm]years went by[F] we dri[Bbsus2]fted apart

When I [Gm]heard that she was [Gm/A]gone I felt a [Dm]shadow cross [Csus2]my heart[Bbsus2] [Gm]

- Is the voice of [Csus2]reason

Against the [Am]howling mob[G]

He[F]ro

                  Am     <--- (Dm)

- Is the pride of purpose

In the unre[Csus2]warding job[G]

He[Dm]ro

- Not the champion [Csus2]player

Who plays the [Am]perfect game[G]

- Not the glamour [Dm]boy

#Ok, here's _Nobody Hero_ by Rush from _Counterparts_.
#
#A brief note on chords. There are 3 chord namings which I should explain.
#
#1) The suspended seconds (sus2). People with some chord theory should know
#this, but for the less informed, its always root 5th barre chord with the
#2nd string "open". So a Csus2 is played like:
#E|-3-   For the Bbsus2 just move down the fret board. The Ebsus2 is played
#B|-3-   differently. See below.
#G|-5-
#D|-5-
#A|-3-
#                                                                                                                                              
{sot}
E|---
{eot}
#
#2) The Ebsus2. This has a very low sound to it, so I think Alex fingers it
#like so:
#E|-1-
#B|-4-
#G|-3-
#D|-1-
#A|-1-
#                                                                                                                                              
{sot}
E|---
{eot}
#
#3) The Gm/A. Now I *know* this is the wrong name for the chord, but I have
#absolutely no idea what its proper name is. My handy-dandy book of 7,488
#guitar chords doesn't seem to have it. Anyway, I finger it like this:
#E|-3-   If this looks kinda wacko, there is precedent for it. Alex plays
#B|-3-   the same chord in _Lock and Key_. Check the video if you don't
#                                                                                                                                              
{sot}
G|-3-   believe me :-)
{eot}
#D|-5-
#A|-3-
#E|-5-
#
#The "Gm/A" chord may not sound quite right when you play it, but that's
#probably because Alex uses a "Nashville tuning" technique for his guitar.
#I'm not terribly familiar with this method, but I believe it involves
#replacing the low, heavy, E, A, D strings with lighter guage ones so they
#are tuned up to the same octave as the higher strings. So when you listen
#to the cd at the "Gm Gm/A" change, it actually sounds like the change in
#fingering is occuring on the higher stirings, but I don't think it is. It
#sounds to me like the E, B, and G strings are unchanged through that chord
#change. But anyway, if you think you have a better idea than that by all
#means correct me.
#
#As far as the two solos go, I haven't had time to figure them out, so they
#aren't included. Chords only. Sorry.
#
#Strumming is pretty much the key to this tune. There is no way I can
#effectively transcribe the strumming pattern here but if you listen to the
#cd and get a feel for the rhythm and where the chord changes occur, you
#should be able to get pretty close to the original.
#
#Warning: Playing this song on an acoustic with a thick neck may cause
#severe cramping of the left hand (it did for me anyways - but then maybe its
#just me; I get the same thing playing Distant Early Warning). :)
#
#So, on with our show.
