* Verse 1 When I walk down the street
I see the people who stop and stare
And say "Haven't I seen that face somewhere a long time ago?"
When I walk down the street
See the stranger who says "Why hi"
With a "How ya going, buddy?
When you walked on by I thought I'd say hello.
They say, "Haven't I seen your face before?"
"Weren't you the boy that used to live next door?"
"Weren't you on television every night?"
"Haven't I seen you 'round?"
* Chorus Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero.
Yesterday's hero - That's all I'd be.
Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero.
And yesterday's hero
Is all that I'm gonna be if I don't get together
Make a new start and be somebody better,
All that I'll be if I don't get together now.
* Verse 2 When you walk down the street
If you know me, then pass me by.
If you're wondering what I'm doing, don't ask me why
I don't read the news.
When you walk down the street
If you're sorry, then don't feel bad.
If you followed my story, then just be glad
You ain't in my shoes.
Because, haven't you seen my face before?
Yes, I was the boy that used to live next door.
Yes, I was on television every night.
Haven't you seen me 'round?
* (Repeat chorus)
* 8-bar break
Yesterday's hero, Yesterday's hero.
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh.
(Repeat 5 more times)
Yesterday's hero, Yesterday's hero
Is all that I'm gonna be if I don't get together,
Make a new start and be somebody better,
All that I'll be if I don't get together now.
