I, I wish you could swim
Like [D] dolphins, like dolphins [G] can swim
[C] Though nothing, nothing will keep us [D] together
We [Am] can beat them, [Em] forever [D] and ever
Or we can [C] be heroes, [G] just for [D] one day

[G] King, [G]
[D] and you, you won't [G] get clean
[C] Or nothing,
[D] just
[Am] [Em] for [D] one day
[C] We couldn't be us, [A] just for [D] one day
I [G] can't believe, I've been walking on fire
[D] Standing by the wall, by the wall
We've
[D] got a shot [G] of all our ills
And [D] we care, cause now nothing [G] can fall
And [C] the sky, was [D] on the other side
Oh we [Am] can beat them, [B] [Em] forever [D] and ever
Or we can [C] be heroes, [G] [A] just for [D] one day
We can [G] be heroes,
[D] we can be [G] heroes,
[D] we can be
