our heroes and all their fatal flaws
C Am C Am
Me, Marlon Brando, Marlon Brando and I sing
G Am
lay me down down down down
G Am
lay me down down down down
G Am
help me off to sleep

take me deep again
Dm Am
we live and dream about our heroes
Dm Am
I listened closely and I said
Dm Am

C Am C Am G
The winners write the rule books, the histories and lullla bies
G Am
lay me down down down down
G Am
lay me down down down down
G Am
help me off to sleep
G Am
take me deep again

End on Am
