Lyrics:

Too alarming now to talk about..
Take your pictures down and shake it out..
Truth or consequence, say it aloud..
Use that evidence, race it around..

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes..
There goes my hero, his ordinary..

Don't the best of them bleed it out,
while the rest of them peter out?
Truth or consequence, say it aloud..
Use that evidence, race it around..

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes..
There goes my hero, his ordinary..

Kudos my hero, leaving all the best!!!
You know my hero, the one that's on!!!

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes..
There goes my hero, his ordinary..

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes..
There goes my hero, his ordinary..


Footnote:

This is a great song to learn and an easy song to play. I tabbed this for 1 guitar only. This is
the best sounding and easiest way to play the song. I did not actually tab this, I just took the
different versions of the tabs for this song and combined the best sounding parts of the different
tabs into this tab. I selected the easiest way of playing the riffs too. Foo Fighters and Dave
Grohl rocks!!! This song is a tribute to the late Kurt Cobain as well!
