The Hero And The Madman Chords by Thin Lizzy

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] The hero _ _ _ rode a white horse _ _ _ [Bm] across [Am] the desert _ to where his woman was.
_ _ [G] He'd been riding _ [Am]
for _ four days when he [C] saw the tower _ [Em] where [Am] she was locked.
_ _ _ _ [Em] In [Am] the moonlight, _ _ _ [G] he [Am] left his old steed _ near [Em] the drawbridge [Am] _ that [E] he crossed.
[A] _ _
[Am] _ And by way of a rope ladder, _ he tippy-toed [G] to where [A] his woman was.
_ _ If _
_ [D] I recall, _ _ _ [G] _
you're the actor who followed the stars, _ _
[F] _ searching [Dm] for [Fm] the lost [D] city of Mars. _ _ _ _ _ _
Hoping [C] time could _ heal the scars, [D] _ _ _ [Cm]
knowing [Dm] fate _ [Em] _ held no [D] bars.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [D]
Those that knew [C] you _ _ [G] always said you'd go far.
[E] _ _ _ [Fm] Are you the [Dm] one _ who [B] I think you are?
_ [Bb] _ _ [Am] _ _ _
Oh, [D] [G] are you the [F] hero? _
_ [E] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ Oh, _ [Bb] are you _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ the [Dm] _ _ [G] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [Dm] hero?
_ [Bb] _ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ The [G] madman [Gbm] _
climbed the [C] steeple [G] spire.
_ [A] _
_ [C] Set [Eb] _ the crowd from [Gb] down below.
_ [N] _ _ _
[Am] Set the [Ab] madman from the steeple spire.
[G] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ Set [A] the crowd from down below.
[E] _ _ [A] So the [E] madman climbed the steeple spire _ [G] and [Am] let a crystal [E] ball of tear fall [G] on the [C] crowd down [A] below. _ _ _ _ _
[D] If I recall, [Am] _ _ _ [Dm]
you're the actor who [C] took to the [E] stage. _
[Fm] Set the world [Dm] ablaze [Cm] with [E] your anger [Am] and your rage.
_ _ _ [D]
And with every new [C] leap, _ [D] [Em] you turned and rode a new page.
_ [E] _
Cleverly [C] concealing _ your [B] real [Am] age.
_ _ _ _ _ [D]
Those that knew you [Am] _ _ were always quite [G] amazed.
_ [C] _ _ _ [F] Are you the one _ _ [G] [Em] that can take this place?
_ [E] _ [Am] _ _ _ _
Oh, [G] are you [F] the hero? _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ Oh, _ [Bb] are _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
you [G] _ the [F] hero? _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ Oh, _ _ [Bb] _ _ [G] _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
[Dm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ [E] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [E] _ _ [Ab] _ [E] _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ [A] _ _ _ [Dm] [Am] are you [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
[C] the [D] hero?
