Born into a world that he didn't know
Hit the ground running like a rolling stone
Deep inside his soul he felt a need
One day he was walking down a busy road
Heard a guitar from the window above
Thunder struck the music set him free

He bought a guitar and night and day he played
His mama said son why
He said just wait for one day
Thousands will hear me play

Guitar hero of the land
Leader of the band
Oh oh
Take your place fill the world with songs of life, life
Guitar hero of the land
Play it loud and take a stand
Oh oh
Through the age, they will remember your name

Take your place
They will remember your name

Another lonely town, a sold out show
Finish out the night just to hit the road
Do it all, do it all again
Hearing all his songs on the radio
Number one records tell me
Where could it go
All the dreams, the dreams they never end

Everywhere
The people seem to know his name
They all say when he plays guitar
The angels cry out for more

Guitar hero of the land
Leader of the band
Oh oh
Take your place fill the world with songs of life, light
Guitar hero of the land
Play it loud and take a stand
Oh oh
Through the age, they will remember your name
Through the age, they will remember your name

Guitar hero of the land
Leader of the band
Oh oh
Take your place fill the world with the songs of life and light
Guitar hero of the land
Play it loud and take a stand
Oh oh
Through the age, they will remember your name
Hit the stage, they'll never forget your name
