[Verse 1]
A                             D           A
You can make somethin' out of nothin', my friend
A                             D        A
Make yourself a little bit of money to spend
A                        D    F#m
You can sing a song everybody knows
A                        D         A
You can walk in with the skinniest girl
A                               D        A
You can carve your initials all over the world
A                    D           F#m
Put on your best big rock-n-roll pose

[Chorus]
D             E            A
What are you, some kind of hero?
      D          E        A
Doin' everything that you can
               D           E             A      D       F#m
You think that everybody's watchin', but nobody gives a damn

Nobody gives a damn

[Verse 2]
A                           D            A
You can walk a wire and you don't need a mitt
A                                    D            A
You're the best damn thing that they haven't seen yet
A                            D         F#m
Give 'em a chance to fall in love with you
A                        D          A
You can sing a tune to a million or two
A                                D             A
Have your name at the top of the list of who's-who
A                              D       F#m
It don't mean nothin' when the rent is due

[Chorus]
D             E            A
What are you, some kind of hero?
      D          E        A
Doin' everything that you can
               D           E             A      D       F#m
You think that everybody's watchin', but nobody gives a damn
       D       E     D E
Nobody gives a damn
       D       E
Nobody gives a damn

E                               D
Nobody cares what you do or say
E                               D
They'll forget about you anyway
E                                     D
Don't you worry, it's a waste of time
E
Take your number and get back in line
