G  Cadd9  Em7  D/F#


[Verse 1]
G             Cadd9
Flashback to another time
Em7                 D/F#
When I looked up to you
D/F#
You were my hero
G                   Cadd9
When my mum had the biggest smile
Em7           D/F#
Now I haven't seen her dance in a while

G                       Cadd9
You lost your job so we moved away
Em7                D/F#
Said goodbye to my friends for a different place
G                                 Cadd9
But things had changed and you're not ok-ay
Em7                      D/F#
You found the bottle and drank your problems away


[Chorus]
   G
So now
    Cadd9
I'm saying good bye
         Em7
To the man
             D/F#
That I once knew
    G        Cadd9
And now I'll hold onto
          Em7          D/F#
Just the mem-ory of you
    G                  Cadd9
And you won't hear me callin'
      Em7        D/F#
As my hero has fall-en
    G
So now
     Cadd9     Em7  D/F#
I'm saying goodbye-ye
D/F#
Goodbye

[Verse 2]
G                        Cadd9
My mother warned me of a broken heart
Em7              D/F#
When someone I loved would just walk away
G                              Cadd9
I never thought that you would play this part
Em7                 D/F#
Took the light and left me alone in the dark
G                          Cadd9
Fifteen years and you just walk away
Em7       D/F#
No final hug or a last goodbye
G                              Cadd9
You don't explain you've not a thing to say
Em7                        D/F#
Just left with memories of you that will never fade


[Chorus]
   G
So now
    Cadd9
I'm saying good bye
         Em7
To the man
             D/F#
That I once knew
    G        Cadd9
And now I'll hold onto
          Em7          D/F#
Just the mem-ory of you
    G                  Cadd9
And you won't hear me callin'
      Em7        D/F#
As my hero has fall-en
    G
So now
     Cadd9     Em7  D/F#
I'm saying goodbye-ye
D/F#
Goodbye


G  Cadd9  Em7  D/F#
     Ooh     Ahh
G  Cadd9  Em7  D/F#
     Ooh     Ahh


[Bridge]
  G
I come home from school
     Cadd9
And I see my mum crying
     Em7
She says you'll be back
        D/F#
But I know she's lying
G            Cadd9
My hero has fallen
     Em7            D/F#
He's just a broken man


[Chorus]
   G
So now
    Cadd9
I'm saying good bye
         Em7
To the man
             D/F#
That I once knew
    G        Cadd9
And now I'll hold onto
          Em7          D/F#
Just the mem-ory of you
    G                  Cadd9
And you won't hear me callin'
      Em7        D/F#
As my hero has fall-en
    G
So now
     Cadd9     Em7  D/F#
I'm saying goodbye-ye
D/F#
Goodbye


G  Cadd9  Em7  D/F#
     Ooh     Ah
       G  Cadd9  Em7  D/F#
Goodbye     Ooh     Ahh
N.C.
Goodbye
