Heroes

D  G  D  G

D             G
I, I will be king
    D                  G
And you, you will be queen
        C                        D
Though nothing will drive them away
       Am7       Em               D
We can beat them    just for one day
           C     G               D
We can be Heroes   just for one day

D                    G
And you, you can be mean
    D             G
And I, I’ll drink all the time
              D                    G
‘Cause we’re lovers and that is a fact
           D                   G
Yes we’re lovers and that is that
        C                      D
Though nothing will keep us together
                Am7  Em              D
We could steal time    just for one day
           C     G              D
We can be Heroes   for ever and ever
What d’you say?

D  G  D  G

D                     G
I, I wish you could swim
          D                            G
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
        C                               D
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
        Am7       Em              D
We can beat them     for ever and ever
              C     G               D
Oh we can be Heroes   just for one day

D  G  D  G

D             G
I, I will be king
    D                  G
And you, you will be queen
        C                        D
Though nothing will drive them away
           Am7    Em               D
We can be Heroes     just for one day
          C  G               D
We can be us   just for one day

D           G
I, I can remember (I remember)
D                 G
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
     D                    G
The guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
        D                              G
And we kissed as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
          C                     D
And the shame was on the other side
           Am7       Em             D
Oh we can beat them    for ever and ever
                C     G               D
Then we can be Heroes   just for one day

D              G
    We can be Heroes
D              G
    We can be Heroes
D              G                    D
    We can be Heroes, just for one day
               G
    We can be Heroes
       C                        D
We’re nothing and nothing will help us
             Am7  Em                       D
Maybe we’re lying    then you better not stay
                 C    G               D
But we could be safer   just for one day

Oh Oh Ohhh Ohhh
