    (E) 
(I can't get them up,  
I can't get them up,  
I can't get them up at all) 
Hey, ho, let go 

Am  Dm  Am  Dm 

      Am                             Dm 
Good morning, killer king, you're a star 
        Am                               Dm 
That's gorgeous, hold it right where you are 
     G                        Dm   C 
The weather's kind of lousy today 
     F                             Am     E   (E7) 
So what, oh, what, oh, what’ll we play? 

  Am                           Dm 
Stratocaster strapped to your back 
        Am                  Dm 
It's a semi-automatic like Dad's 
    G                           Dm    C 
He taught you how to pause and reset 
      F                         Am    E   (E7) 
And that’s about as far as you get 

     Am                       Dm 
So what’s the use in going outside? 
            Am                              Dm 
It's so depressing when people die in real life 
     G                             Dm    C 
I'd rather pick up right where we left 
 F                      C/G 
Making out to faces of death, ooh 
 F                      Am     E  (E7) 
Making out to faces of death 

    A                  D           C               F 
And I could save you, baby, but it isn't worth my time 
    A                  D             C               F 
And I could make you chase me for a little Price is Right 

        Am                        Dm 
It’s a hit, but are you actually sure 
     Am                         Dm 
The targets in the crowd are a blur 
     G                                Dm     C 
The people screaming just like they should 
     F                             C/G 
But you don't even know if you're good, ooh 
 F                             Am    E   (E7) 
You don't even know if you're good 

   Am                             Dm 
So tie them up and feed them the sand 
Am                            Dm 
Try hard, tell us using your hands 
   G                         Dm    C 
A picture's worth a million words 
 F                        C/G 
And that way nobody gets hurt, ooh 
 F                        Am    E   (E7) 
And that way nobody gets hurt 

A                  D            C              F 
I could save you, baby, but it isn't worth my time 
    A                  D             C               F 
And I could make you chase me for a little Price is Right 

  A       D 
(Woo-ooh-ooh 
 C       F 
Woo-ooh-ooh 
 A       D         C         F 
Woo-ooh–ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) 

             Am 
You’re my guitar hero 
             Dm 
You’re my guitar hero 
             Am 
You’re my guitar hero 
             Dm 
You’re my guitar hero 
 E 
Hey 

Am                      Dm 
X marks the box in the hole in the ground  
          C                             E 
That goes off at a breath, so careful, don't make a sound 
Am                      Dm 
X marks the box in the hole in your head  
          C                     E   (E7) 
That you dug for yourself, now lie in it 

     Am                             Dm 
Shut up about all of that negative shit 
     Am                                    Dm 
You wanted to make it, and now that you're in 
      G                             Dm    C 
You shut your eyes and flip the cassette 
      F                             C/G 
And that’s about the time that they hit, ooh 
      F                             Am     E   (E7) 
And that’s about the time that they hit 

 Am                            Dm 
What the fuck is up with this shit? 
 Am                                Dm 
It's certainly not worth getting upset 
     G                               Dm    C 
His hands are gone, and most of his head 
      F                          C/G 
And just when he was getting so good 
 F                           Am    E   (E7) 
Just when he was getting so good 

A                  D           C               F 
I could save you, baby, but it isn't worth my time 
        A         D                    C               F 
'Cause even if I saved you, there's a million more in line 

  A       D 
(Woo-ooh-ooh 
 C       F 
Woo-ooh-ooh 
 A       D         C         F 
Woo-ooh–ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) 

             Am 
You’re my guitar hero 
             Dm 
You’re my guitar hero 
             Am 
You’re my guitar hero 
             Dm 
You’re my guitar hero 
             Am 
You’re my guitar hero 

Oh
