Lyrics My Hero

My Hero was written by Dave Grohl as a tribute to his musical heroes and the ordinary people he admired. It was partly inspired by Grohls admiration for his friend and former bandmate Kurt Cobain but also addresses everyday heroes. The song was a significant hit and has been seen as an anthem by fans. 

 Too Alarming now, to talk about
 Take your pictures down, and shake it out
 Truth or consequence, say it aloud
 Use that evidence, race it around

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary

 Don't the best of them, bleed it out
 While the rest of them, peter out
 Truth or consequence, say it aloud
 Use that evidence, race it around

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary

 Kudos my hero, leaving all the best
 You know my hero, the one that's on
There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary
