G Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
[Verse 1]
G Cadd9
Flashback to another time
Em7 D/F#
When I looked up to you
D/F#
You were my hero
G Cadd9
When my mum had the biggest smile
Em7 D/F#
Now I haven't seen her dance in a while
G Cadd9
You lost your job so we moved away
Em7 D/F#
Said goodbye to my friends for a different place
G Cadd9
But things had changed and you're not ok-ay
Em7 D/F#
You found the bottle and drank your problems away
[Chorus]
G
So now
Cadd9
I'm saying good bye
Em7
To the man
D/F#
That I once knew
G Cadd9
And now I'll hold onto
Em7 D/F#
Just the mem-ory of you
G Cadd9
And you won't hear me callin'
Em7 D/F#
As my hero has fall-en
G
So now
Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
I'm saying goodbye-ye
D/F#
Goodbye
G Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9
My mother warned me of a broken heart
Em7 D/F#
When someone I loved would just walk away
G Cadd9
I never thought that you would play this part
Em7 D/F#
Took the light and left me alone in the dark
G Cadd9
Fifteen years and you just walk away
Em7 D/F#
No final hug or a last goodbye
G Cadd9
You don't explain you've not a thing to say
Em7 D/F#
Just left with memories of you that will never fade
[Chorus]
G
So now
Cadd9
I'm saying good bye
Em7
To the man
D/F#
That I once knew
G Cadd9
And now I'll hold onto
Em7 D/F#
Just the mem-ory of you
G Cadd9
And you won't hear me callin'
Em7 D/F#
As my hero has fall-en
G
So now
Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
I'm saying goodbye-ye
D/F#
Goodbye
G Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
Ooh Ahh
G Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
Ooh Ahh
[Bridge]
G
I come home from school
Cadd9
And I see my mum crying
Em7
She says you'll be back
D/F#
But I know she's lying
G Cadd9
My hero has fallen
Em7 D/F#
He's just a broken man
[Chorus]
G
So now
Cadd9
I'm saying good bye
Em7
To the man
D/F#
That I once knew
G Cadd9
And now I'll hold onto
Em7 D/F#
Just the mem-ory of you
G Cadd9
And you won't hear me callin'
Em7 D/F#
As my hero has fall-en
G
So now
Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
I'm saying goodbye-ye
D/F#
Goodbye
G Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
Ooh Ah
G Cadd9 Em7 D/F#
Goodbye Ooh Ahh
N.C.
