Db/Ab                    Gb
       I guess I’d be a hero

               Db/F  Ebm
With sword and armor clashing

       Gb/Bb     Ab/C
Looking     semi dashing

                       Db
A shield within my grip

            Db/F Gbadd2
Or else I’d be a Viking

              Db/F   Ebm
And live a life   of daring

               Gbmaj7/Bb  Ab/C
While smelling like     a herring

              Gbsus2
Upon a Viking ship

         Dbadd2/F 
I’d sail away, I’d see the world

Gbsus2                Fm7
      I'd reach the farthest reaches

Gbsus2                 Db/F              Gbadd2        F7/A
      I’d feel the wind,   I’d taste the salt   and sea

       Bbm      Abadd2/C Ab/C     Gbsus2
And may - be storm           some beaches
That’s who I’d be
               Db
That’s who I’d be

             Db/F    Gb                 Db/F  Ebm7
Or I could be    a poet and write a diff’rent story

         Gb/Bb    Ab/C                         Db
One that tells of glory and wipes away the lies

            Db/F   Gbsus2
Into the skies I’d throw it

                 Db/F    Ebm7
The stars would do   the telling

                 Gb/Bb   Ab/C
The moon would help with spelling
And night would dot the “I’s”
Gbsus2                Dbadd2/F 
      I’d write a verse,      recite a joke

Gbsus2             Fm7
      With wit and perfect timing

Gbsus2                 Dbadd2/F            Gbadd2  Gb F7/A
      I’d share my heart,      confess the things  I  yearn

      Bbm   Ab/C      Gbsus2
And do   it all while rhyming

Gbsus2
But we all learn, but we all learn

Cbsus2               Gb/Bb Cbsus2                  Gb/Bb
      An ogre always hides,      an ogre’s fate is known

Cbsus2               Gb/Bb Ab/C                 Cm7    Bbsus4    Bb    D
      An ogre always stays in the dark and all alone

        D/F#       G            D/F#         Em7
So yes, I’d be a hero and if my wish were granted

             G/B    A/C#                       D
Life would be enchanted, or so the stories say

                    G/B      G          D/F# Em7
Of course I’d be a hero, and I would scale a tower

            G/B     A/C#    A
To save a hot-house flower

                   Gsus2
And carry her away

             Dadd2/F#
But standing guard would be a beast

Gsus2            F#m7
     I’d somehow overwhelm it

Gsus2              Dadd2/F#
     I’d get the girl,     I’d take a breath,

Gsus2           F#m7
     And I’d remove my helmet

Gsus2                   D/F#             G/B
     We’d stand and stare, we’d speak of love

                  D/F#
We’d feel the stars ascending

Gsus2                 D/F#          G     F#
     We’d share a kiss, I’d find my destiny

      Bmadd2 Bm   Asus2 A      Gsus2
I’d have     a he   -   ro’s end  -  ing
