I'm no hero, I'm no saint,

And I've alway wondered, what a women does,
A E B7 E
when she finaly sees her man is not the man she thought he was.

I never was the man I used to be,
F#7 B7
her loving eyes could only see what she wanted them to see.

She saw a knight in shining armor, but Lord, he wasn't me,
A E B7 E
I never was the man I used to be.

I've tryed to tell her, I'm still just me,

and I never was the man she thinks I used to be.

I never was the man I used to be,

She saw a knight in shining armor, oh Lord, he wasn't me,
