[Verse 1]
G C D G
I was in Pittsburgh when I saw Superman in the backroom
C D G
He was doing lines or something in the bathroom
C D G C D
I barely recognized him at all
G C D G
I saw him doing things you shouldn't do with all that power
C D G
I wish someone would have thrown him in the shower
C D G C D
I barely recognized him at all
[Chorus]
G C D
That night I put my youth in a casket
G C D
And buried it inside of me
G C D
That night I saw through all the magic
G C D
Now I'm a witness to the death of a hero
G C D
I burned all the pictures in the attic
G C D
And threw away the magazines
G C D
That night I saw through all the magic
G C D
And now I'm a witness to the death of a hero
G C D
[Verse 2]
G C D G
I tried to look away but you can't look away from a trainwreck
C D G
The things you said to girls well they were shameless
C D G C D
I barely recognized him at all
G C D G
I tried to help but he said he was just too far from saving
C D G
And nothing I could say was gonna change him
C D G C D
I barely recognized him at all
[Chorus]
G C D
That night I put my youth in a casket
G C D
And buried it inside of me
G C D
That night I saw through all the magic
G C D
Now I'm a witness to the death of a hero
G C D
I burned all the pictures in the attic
G C D
And threw away the magazines
G C D
That night I saw through all the magic
G C D
And now I'm a witness to the death of a hero
[Bridge]
G
The death of a hero he couldn't be saved
C D
Now I'm cutting the grass and I'll cover his grave
G C D
I'll cover his grave
G
The death of a hero I'm turning the page
C D
Now I'm cutting the grass and I'll cover his grave
G C D
I'll cover his grave
[Chorus]
G C D
That night I put my youth in a casket
G C D
And buried it inside of me
G C D
That night I saw through all the magic
G C D
Now I'm a witness to the death of a hero
G C D
I burned all the pictures in the attic
G C D
And threw away the magazines
G C D
That night I saw through all the magic
G C D
And now I'm a witness to the death of a hero
