Dm C
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
Somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasy,
Bb A
Where's the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds?
Somewhere just beyond my reach there's someone reaching back for me.
Dm Am
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
Gm A5+ A
Late at night I toss and turn and I dream of what I need.
It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet, yeah!
Dm Am
I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night,
Bb
He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast,
F C
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight.
Dm Am
I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light,
Bb
He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon,
F C Dm
And he's gotta be larger than life... Larger than life.
break Dm...
Dm
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above,
Through the wind and the chill and the rain,
Bb
out where the lightning splits the sea,
and the storm and the flood,
Gm A Dm
I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me.
I can feel his approach like the fire in my blood
Fdim
like the fire in my blood, like the fire in my blood,
A5+ A
like the fire in my blood, like the fire in my blood! Aaah!
