Holding Out For A Hero
Bonnie Tyler
[Am] [Am7] [F] [E5] [E] [Am]Oooooooo [Am7]Oooooooo [F] Oo oo oo oo [E5] 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 [E5] dream of what I [E] need.
Chorus
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 [E5] 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 [E5] sweep me off my [E] feet,
[E] (yeah!)
Chorus
I need a [Am] hero, I'm holding out for a [Em] hero 'til the end of the night, [Am] [Am] [Am] (Da Daddle a da da daa) [Am] (Da Daddle a da da daa)
[Am] Up where the mountains meet the heavens above [F] Out where the lightning splits the sea
[Dm] I could swear that there's [E] someone somewhere [Am] Watching me
[Am] Through the wind and the chill and the rain [F] And the storm and the flood [Dm] I can feel his [E] approach Like the fire in the [Am] blood
[E5] Like the fire in my blood x 3
[E5] Like the fire in my [E5] Ahhhhh [E] Ahhhhh
Chorus x 2
Larger than [Am] (life)
