Lyrics
AIN'T NO GUITAR HERO When I was a young boy Always it was my fantasy To learn to play the guitar Was a constant goal for me Borrowed every riff I could Never made no appolagies Got me out of trouble Help make a man of me So I kept on playin'....It got me this far So I kept on playin'...Never cared to be a star Ain't no guitar hero...just want to play guitar ! Not much of a showman Never wanted to be The type of guitar player That played solos with his teeth Rather close my eyes And let my spirit free Can't play the thing behind my back This never was for me But I kept on playin'...It got me this far I kept on playin'... never cared to be a star Ain't no guitar hero....Just want to play guitar ! SOLO Please don't get me wrong I don't mean to criticise I'm not gonna play that kind of game but I can sympathise When a picker's on on his knees I can't help but grin I say better him then me I don't care who wins So I'll keep on playin'....It got me this far So I'll keep on playin'...Never cared to be a star Ain't no guitar hero...just want to play guitar ! Ain't no guitar hero...just want to play guitar ! Ain't no guitar hero...just want to play guitar ! Words & Music : Michel Goudreau - SOCAN ©Copyright 2014 by Michel Goudreau
