And only a kiss ago I was yesterday's hero

I was the leader of the big parade
D#m G#m C#sus4 C# F#
Now look at me I'm yesterday's he ro, hero
How their cheers used to sing in my ears
With you walking by my side I was a conquering hero
But no one even says hello
They say that idols come and idols go
Well I oughta know I'm yesterday's hero, hero
Now the glamour and the glory's gone
But will the story of our love be live on
Or fade away like yesterday's hero
