[Verse 1 E5 D5 C5] Where do you run when you need to hide? Where do you sleep so you won’t die? Where do you turn when you need to cry? Who do you reach for when your tears run dry? [Chorus B5 F#5 D5 (slide to F@9th)] When your heroes become human, What’s the lessons they have left with you? When your heroes become human, What’s the lessons they have left with you? [Verse 2 E5 D5 C5] They kept you company when you were alone, They gave you courage when you faced the unknown. They gave you hope when you had none— Were they bulletproof, or did they use a gun? [Chorus B5 F#5 D5 (slide to F@9th)] When your heroes become human, What’s the lessons they have left with you? When your heroes become human, What’s the lessons they have left with you? [Verse 3 E5 D5 C5] Talk to me again from the wreckage and flame, You taught me strength, then you slipped in shame. Still I hear your words when I’m losing ground— You were human, but your light’s still found. [Verse 4 E5 D5 C5] Your words still breathe, they keep me alive; Just to hear your voice pulls me out of this dive. Come back to me from wherever you are, Let your spirit sing through my guitar. [Guitar Solo – E minor pentatonic (12th fret resolution)] [Bridge G D C Em – Live Legacy section] The lights still fade, the crowd still sings, Your echo moves through everything. Every soul you touched still hums your tune— A little more human, because of you. Where will you be as the night closes in, When I get scared and I need a friend? I’ll hear the music that sets me free— Close my eyes, and you’re here with me. [Chorus B5 F#5 D5 (slide to F@9th)] When your heroes become human, What’s the lessons they have left with you? When your heroes become human, What’s the lessons they have left with you? [Outro E5 D5 C5 → open G D C Em fade] Where will you be when the story ends? Somewhere beyond, where the broken mend. When the last light fades and the curtain falls, The light you sparked still finds us all.
