----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hero – Chad Kroeger, Josey Scott, others ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most of the other tabs are right, but if you listen to the higher accented Notes in the song, you realize there is a slight chord change. And so with Change, this seems the easiest way to play it. Or just take a look at the Video and you can tell this is what he’s doing. TUNED: Down Ѕ Step (EbAbDbGbBbEb) These are the chords, it’s not too hard to figure out strumming pattern.
