Never Meet Your Heroes
Lee Brice Ft. Vince Gill
Intro
Verse
He'd Give You His Last Cold Beer Or A Shirt Right Off His Back
He Could Barely Get On That John Deere But He'd Cut His Neighbor's Grass
He's The First One There On Sunday Three Thousand Weekends Straight
But Even When He Didn't Have Much Money He Never Just Passed That Offering Plate
And This Crazy World We're Living In
Could Sure Use A Whole Lot More Like Him
Chorus
And They Say Never Meet Your Heroes It'll Only Break Your Heart
Once You Peek Behind That Curtain They Ain't Who You Think They Are
Might Be Some Words Of Wisdom But It Ain't True Every Time
Whoever Said Never Meet Your Heroes Ain't Ever Met Mine
Verse
There Ain't No Statue In His Honor And The World Don't Know His Name
But His Wife Can Say He Never Raised His Voice After 60 Years And Change
His Word Was Like A Sunrise You Could Always Count On It
Never Said He Saved Lives In World War Ii But His Buddies All Say He Did
Chorus
And They Say Never Meet Your Heroes 'Cause It'll Only Break Your Heart
Once You Peek Behind That Curtain They Ain't Who You Hope They Are
Might Be Some Words Of Wisdom But It Ain't True Every Time
Whoever Said Never Meet Your Heroes Ain't Never Met Miiiiiiiiine
Ain't Ever Met Miiiine
Ooooooooh
Bridge
He Made Hard Times Look Easy And Big Problems Seem So Small
Hell. I Coulds Called Him Superman But I Just Called Him My Grandpa
Chorus
And They Say Never Meet Your Heroes 'Cause It'll Only Break Your Heart
Once You Peek Behind That Curtain They Ain't Who You Hope They Are
There Might Be Some Words Of Wisdom But They Ain't True Every Time
Whoever Said Never Meet Your Heroes Ain't Never Met Miiiiiiine
No, They Ain't Ever Met Mine
