ARTIST: Foreigner
TITLE: Juke Box Hero
Lyrics and Chords


Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold-out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, and like a distant scream

/ E - D - / / / /

He heard one guitar, just blew him away
Saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six-string, in a second-hand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure

That one guitar, felt good in his hands
Didn't take long, to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was a one way ticket, only one way to go

So he started rocking, ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rocking, someday gonna make it to the top

/ B - B7 B / B7 - B - /

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero
He took one guitar
    Juke box hero, stars in his eyes
    Juke box hero, stars in his eyes
He'll come alive tonight

/ E G D A / / / /

In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, from that day in the rain
And that one guitar, made his whole life change

Now he needs to keep rocking, he just can't stop
Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah a juke box hero, stars in his eyes
With that one guitar, stars in his eyes
He'll come alive, come alive tonight

Yeah, he's gotta keep rocking, he just can't stop
Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, ahhhh
Juke box hero, juke box hero, he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes
