[Verse 1]
G            C          G
  What can I learn from you,
G      C            D                G
  your lifetime and what you’ve been through?
          G         C           G         D
How’d you keep your head up and hold your pride?
      G      C                G       D
In an insane world, how’d you keep on trying?

G                C        G
    One life can tell the tale
              G        C           D      G
(that) if you make the effort, you cannot fail.
        G        C               G      D
By your life you tell me that it can be done.
        G          C          G     D
By your life’s the courage to carry on.

[Chorus]
C G      D           G 
Heroes appear like a friend
C             G                 D 
   To clear a path or light the flame
     C    G         D          G            C G 
(as) time goes, you find you depend on your heroes
   G            D      C  G
To show you the way

[Verse 2]

 What can I learn from you?
              G      C                  D   G
(That I must) do the thing I think I cannot do.
         G         C             G         D
That you do what’s right by your heart and sole
         G    C             G       D
It’s the imperfections that make us whole
G               C        G
   One life can tell the tale
              G        C           D      G
(that) if you make the effort, you cannot fail.
        G        C               G      D
By your life you tell me that it can be done.
        G          C          G     D
By your life’s the courage to carry on.
