[Bm]
Soon as you're born, [A] they make you feel [Bm]
small
By giving you no time [A] instead of it [Bm] all
Until the pain is so big you [A] feel nothing [Bm] at all
A working class hero [E] is something to [Bm] be
A working [A] class hero [E] is something to [Bm]
be
They hurt you [A] at home and [E] they hit you [Bm] at school
They hate if you're clever [A] and despise [Bm] a fool
Until you're so crazy you [A] can't follow their [Bm] rules
A working [A] class hero [E] is something to [Bm] be
A working [A] class hero [E] is something to [Bm] be
[B] When they torture and [A]
scared you [E] for twenty [Bm]-odd years
Then they expect you [A] to pick a [Bm] career
When you can't really function [A] you're so full [Bm] of fear
A working [A] class hero is something [Bm] to be
A working [A] class hero [E] is something [Bm] to be
You're dealt with [A] religion and sex and [Bm] three beer
And you think you're so clever [A] and classless [Bm] and free
But you're so peasants [A] as far as I [Bm] can see

But bless you most when they're [A] smiling [B] to kill
If you want to be like all [A] the folks on [B] the hill
A working [A] class hero [E] is something [Bm] to be
A working [A] class hero [E] is something [Bm] to be
A working [A] class hero [E] is something [B] to be
