Time Loves A Hero

Little Feat

 

Chorus/Main Riff: E                    

Well they say time loves a hero, but only time will tell

If he's real, he's a legend from heaven

If he ain't he was sent here from hell

      

        D

Hear me well

Seein' ain't always believin'                        

Just make sure it's the truth that you're seein'     

C                   D                                

Eyes sometimes lie, eyes sometimes lie                     Intro/Main Riff:

They can be real deceivin'                       e-------------------------------------                                             B-------------------------------------

Spends his days in the sun                      E---0-----------------3h4----2~h3-0---

    E         G#    F#                         

His nights in the casinos

E    D  A                           B7sus4

            He left the States many years ago

B7sus4                 G      D  A

Took a fishin' boat to Puerto Rico

A                                             

Now my aunt, she is sad and lonely

A

She'll never know that she drove him away

     B7sus4

As a coward I admire his courageous ways

Chorus: E & D

Well they say time loves a hero

But only time will tell

If he's real, he's a legend from heaven

If he ain't he’s a mouthpiece from hell

 

 

Guitar Solo over Intro then Chorus, then to the A-D-E  (gotta feel it out)


Walk Up: C#m (hold)   C > D > E

 

 

E  D A                         B7sus4

       Some say my uncle, that he's a zero

    E                   G#      F#      B7sus4

His life as a shell, he left it back at Stateside

E  D A                         B7sus4

       I'd say he's doin' well,  without his shell

B7sus4                        G      D  A 

Bummin 'round the beaches of Puerto Rico

A

The beauty of the sunrise and sunset, to his friends he wish he could tell

B7sus4

They're at home still runnin' for bells

n/c

Better San Juan than that blue collar hell
