Holding Out For A Hero
Bonnie Tyler
[Am]Oooooooo [Am7]Oooooooo
[F] Oo oo oo oo [E7] Aaah-[E]-aaah
[Am] Where have all the good men gone and [G] where are all the gods?
[F] Where's the street-wise Hercules to [E] fight the rising odds?
[Am] Isn't there a white knight [Em] upon a fiery steed?
[Dm] Late at night I toss and turn and I [E7] dream of what I [E] need.
I need a [Am] hero, Iʼm holding out for a [Em] hero 'til the end of the night,
Heʼs [F] gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast,
And he's [C] gotta be fresh from the [G] fight.
I need a [Am] hero, Iʼm holding out for a [Em] hero 'til the morning light,
Heʼs [F] gotta be sure, and it's [Dm] gotta be soon,
And heʼs [C] gotta be larger than [G] life...
Larger than [Am] (life)
[Am] Oo oo oo oo [Am7] Oo oo oo oo
[F] Oo oo oo oo [E7] Aaah-[E]-aaah
[Am] Somewhere after midnight in my [G] wildest fantasy,
[F] Somewhere just beyond my reach there's someone [E] reaching back for me.
[Am] Racing on the thunder and [Em] rising with the heat
[Dm] It's gonna take a superman to [E7] sweep me off my [E] feet,
[E] (yeah!)
