[Verse]
Am
Where have all the good men gone

    G
And where are all the gods?

F
Where's the streetwise Hercules

  Esus4             E
to fight the rising odds?

Am                         G
Isn't there a white knight upon a firey steed?

F
Late at night I toss and I turn

      Esus4           E
And I dream of what I need
[Pre-Chorus]
        Am     G      F      E
I need a hero

Am                             G
Somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasy

F
Somewhere just beyond my reach

        E
There's someone reaching back for me

Am
Racing on the thunder

    Em
And rising with the heat

F                Dm
It's gonna take a Superman

   E
To sweep me off my feet
[Chorus]
         Am
I need a hero

                      Em
I'm holding out for a hero til the end of the night

     F
He's gotta be strong

         Dm
And he's gotta be fast

         C                       G
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

         Am
I need a hero

                      Em
I'm holding out for a hero til the morning night

     F
He's gotta be sure

         Dm
And it's gotta be soon

         C                    G     Am   G    F    E
And he's gotta be larger than life
[Bridge]
Am
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above

F
Out where the lightning splits the sea

Dm                     E                Am
I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me

Am
Through the wind and the chill and the rain

F7
And the storm and the flood

Dm            E7                          Am
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood

D#dim
Like a fire in my blood

D#dim
Like a fire in my blood

D#dim
Like a fire in my blood

                  E
Like a fire in my ah! Ah!
[Chorus]
         Am
I need a hero

                      Em
I'm holding out for a hero til the end of the night

     F
He's gotta be strong

         Dm
And he's gotta be fast

         C                       G
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

         Am
I need a hero

                      Em
I'm holding out for a hero til the morning night

     F
He's gotta be sure

         Dm
And it's gotta be soon

         C                    G     Am   G    F    E
And he's gotta be larger than life

            Am
Larger than life

G
Doo doo doo doo

F
Doo doo doo doo

E
ah! Ah!

         Am
I need a hero!
