CHILDHOOD HERO
As recorded by Bobby Bare
(From the 1978 Album BARE)

[Intro]
G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
Cadd9 G Cadd9

[Verse 1]
G
She smiled and said, "If you are who I think you are
Cadd9 G Cadd9
I'd really like to meet you."
D D7
I laughed and said, "If you are what I think you are
G
I'd like to meet you too."

[Verse 2]
G
She said, "You've taught me lots of things
Cadd9
But I'll bet there's some things that I could teach you
D
And though you don't know me
D7 G
I sure know you."

[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
"'Cause you are my childhood hero.", she said
D7 G
"I got all your records I know all your songs
Cadd9 G
And I got your picture tacked over my bed
Cadd9 G
And you know I once wrote you a letter.", she said
Cadd9 G E
"And I don't believe that a night that was spent
A D G
By a girl with her childhood hero could ever be wrong."

[Verse 3]
G
"A thousand songs, a hundred poems
Cadd9
And a half, half a fifth of Chivas Regal
D
While my picture on the wall looked down
D7 G
And winked at me as if the bastard knew."
