ZERO TO A HERO **
© Words and Music: Ben Krahne / Donna Aylor


He’s been playing Nashville bars for ten years now

Bathing in the neon glow watching the beers go down

But the daylight can’t hide the loneliness

Ever since his wife said “I quit”

Now the only time he feels no pain

Is up on that stage



CHORUS

FROM A ZERO TO A HERO WITH JUST ONE SONG
PICKIN’ HIS OLD GUITAR HE CAN DO NO WRONG

AND FROM NINE TO TWO AM

HE’S EVERYBODY’S FRIEND

FROM A ZERO TO A HERO WITH JUST ONE SONG



Plays the Children’s Ward ev’ry Tuesday night for a sing along

Makes the kids giggle for awhile with a silly song

He may never be a millionaire

But he don’t seem to care

As long as there’s a good crowd at night

He’ll be doin’ all right



REPEAT CHORUS



BRIDGE

Tonight’s his lucky night

A record man likes what he hears

Asks him “Where ya been so long

You got a sound that’s the real deal”….



CHORUS

FROM A ZERO TO A HERO WITH JUST ONE SONG

PICKIN’ HIS OLD GUITAR HE CAN DO NO WRONG

AND FROM L.A . TO SOUTH BEND
HE’LL BE EVERYBODY’S BEST FRIEND

FROM A ZERO TO A HERO WITH JUST ONE SONG



FROM A ZERO TO A HERO WITH JUST ONE SONG
