F#9                                                            C#
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
F#9                                                     C#
Where?s the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds?
F#9                                    C#
Isn?t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
F#9                                                  Ebm
   Late at night I toss and turn and I dream of what I need.


         Bbm   F#2                              C#                               Ab
I need a hero, I?m holding out for a hero ?til the end of the night,
                     Bbm                                  F#
He?s gotta be strong and he?s gotta be fast,
         C#                                     Ab
And he?s gotta be fresh from the fight.
         Bbm   F#2                              C#                            Ab
I need a hero, I?m holding out for a hero ?til the morning light,
                      Bbm                               F#
He?s gotta be sure, and it?s gotta be soon,
         C#                                 Ab
And he?s gotta be larger than life...
            Bbm     F#	C#	Ab
Larger than life.

Bbm     F#	C#	Ab

Somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasy,
Somewhere just beyond my reach there?s someone reaching back for me.
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It?s gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet, yeah!

CHORUS
 
Ebm
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above,
F#
out where the lightning splits the sea,
Ebm                                                               C#
I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me.
Ebm
Through the wind and the chill and the rain,
F#
and the storm and the raging flood,
Ebm                                          C#
I can feel his approach like the fire in my blood

	     Bbm  F#2                C#			       Ab
I'll meet a hero, and then we'll dance 'til the morning light 
		Bbm       F#2
Dreaming he'll lead me
         C#		    Ab
Held tight tonight's the night 

CHORUS

Bbm     F#	C#	Ab   (repeat to end)


F#9                                                            C#
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
F#9                                                     C#
Where?s the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds?
F#9                                    C#
Isn?t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
F#9                                                  Ebm
