I ain't lived forever but I've lived e-nough
F#m D A E
and I've learned to be gentle and I've learned to be tough
F#m D A D
I've found only two things that last to the end
A E A
One is your heroes the other your friends
Chorus
D A
Your heroes will help you find good in yourself
E D A
your friends won't forsake you for somebody else.
D A F#m
They'll both stand beside you through thick and through thin
A E A
and that's how it goes with heroes and friends
A E A
I grew up with cowboys I watched on T-V
F#m D A E
My friends and I sometimes pre-tended to be
F#m D A D
Years have gone by but now and again
A E A
my heart rides the range with my heroes and friends
Chorus
D A
Your heroes will help you find good in yourself
E D A
your friends won't forsake you for somebody else.
D A F#m
They'll both stand beside you through thick and through thin
A E D
and that's how it goes with heroes and friends
A E D A
and that's how it goes with heroes and friends
