[Verse 1]
G (or tab same as introduction)
Oh look at me so ordinary, no mystery, with no great capabilities,
EmDCG
But I could make out as if I had it but you'd know,
EmDCGD
God I’m so obvious and I should let it go oh I don’t know.
[Chorus 1]
G
I’m no teenage icon,
CD
I’m no Frankie Avalon,
GCDG
I’m nobody’s hero.
[Verse 2]
G (or tab same as introduction)
Preserved and shy your average guy, no piercing stare, just out of shape with messy hair,
EmDCG
But I always figured I was somebody in wake,
EmDCGD
And now I’m guessing that my moment must be late cause I'm here.
[Chorus 2]
G
I’m no teenage icon,
CD
I’m no Frankie Avalon,
GCDG
I’m nobody’s hero.

[Bridge]
CDGC
I’m not magnetic or mythical,
CDGC
I’m suburban and typical,
CDGCDG
But I got it, I got I’m overrun with it all.
[Verse 3]
G
Seductive charm a way with words so effortless not leather clad or dangerous,
EmDCG
But I always did it like a real rebel would,
EmDCG
I had a photo where John Lennon may have stood,
D
or so I’m told.
[Chorus 3]
G
I’m no teenage icon,
CD
I’m no Frankie Avalon,
GCD
I’m nobody’s hero.
[Solo 2]
(G, C, D, G, C, D)
[Chorus 4]
G
I’m no teenage icon,
CD
I’m no Frankie Avalon,
GCDG
I’m nobody’s hero.
