[C#]
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
[F#] Where's the [C#] streetwise [F#]
[C#] Hercules to fight the rising odds?
[F#] Isn't [C#] there a white knight upon a fiery [F#] steed?
Late at night [C#] I toss [F#] and turn [D#] and dream of what I need
[F] I [A#m] need a hero
[F#] I'm holding on [C#] for a hero till the end of the night
He's gotta [A#m] be strong, he's gotta [F#] be fast
[C#] And he's gotta be larger than life, larger [A#m] than life
[C#]
Da da da da da da da da da da da da
[F#] Summer after midnight [C#] and my world is [F#] fantasies
And summer just [C#] beyond my reach, there's someone reaching back for me
[F#] Racing on the thunder [C#] and rising [G#] with the [C#] heat
[F#] Isn't there a superman [C#] to sweep my feet?
[D#] I [A#m] need a hero
[F#] I'm holding out for [C#] a hero till the end of the night
He's gotta [A#m] be strong, he's gotta be [F#] fast
And [C#] he's gotta be larger than life
[D#m] Up where the mountains meet the heavens [C#] above
Up where the lightning splits the [D#m] sea
I could swear that there's someone somewhere [G#] [C#] watching me
[D#m] Through the wind and the chill and the [C#] rain
And the storm and the raging [D#m] flood
Oh, his approach is [C#] like a fire in my blood
I'll [A#m] meet a hero
[F#] And [C#] then we'll dance till the morning light
[A#m] Dreaming he'll [F#] lead [C#] me
Held tight tonight's the night
I [A#m] need a hero
[F#] I'm holding [C#] out for a hero till the end of the [G#] night
He's gotta [A#m] be strong, he's gotta [F#] be fast
[C#] And he's gotta be fresh from the [G#] fight
[A#m] [F#] I'm holding [C#] out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta [A#m] be sure, he's gotta [F#] be soon
And [C#] he's gotta be larger than life
Larger [A#m] than life
[F#]
[C#] Oh
[G#]
Larger [A#m] than [F#]
[C#] [G#] life
Larger [A#m] than [F#] life
