  • We could be heroes, just for one day. Or, ya know, a year or two. As my good friend so cheekily put it, this is the first time in the history of the world when we can save the world by sitting on the couch watching Netflix... or perhaps learning to play Heroes by David Bowie on the guitar ;) As the rest of the world moves in the right direction while the U.S.A does just the opposite, I thought this would be a fitting song for the day. Be hero! We can lose the weight later. And a true thanks to all the real heroes out there doing what needs to be done at the front lines. Stay safe everybody.

    I literally have tears in my eyes. You sir are an incredible teacher and musician. Thank you SO MUCH for putting this out. I love the Neil Finn version and can't wait to learn this with you immense assistance.

    Thanks Ryan! This is the best version I’ve found, especially if your not playing with a band to do the various parts. It’s great!

    Great song, was watching the Earl Slick "Sidemen" documentary last night and thought "Hey, I should learn "Hero's". And here's Ryan with a lesson! Thank you! 🤘😀

    I love that song - and I really, really love the Wallflowers cover as well. When this was being played at the final scene of "Jojo Rabbit" it made me smile.
    Thanks for the lesson Ryan!

    Neil Finn of split enz and crowded house fame does a awesome acoustic version of heroes. Worth a watch. 227 likes zero dislikes. Says it all really. Thanks for the lessons Ryan. All the best from Tasmania 👍🏼

    How are the turtles doing dude? Can you say how many of them you have next time you publish? Why not? Happy I know you. Your content has enabled me in an amazing way. You give me enough. And then I just have to work like crazy. But it’s satisfying because I truly love the music that I’m playing 1000 times. Working on vocals. Trying to get back to the best I ever was. Anyway thank you.

    Drop your low E down to D achieving the G bass chord by fretting the low E and A at fret 5, I think that's how Carlos alamar played it, cheers.
