Intro: D G D G D G I wish I could swim D G Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim Am D Though nothing will keep us together Am Em D We can beat them for ever and ever Am Em D Oh we can be Heroes just for one day D G I, I will be king D G And you, you will be queen C D Though nothing will drive them away C D We can beat them just for one day C G D We can be Heroes just for one day D G And you, you can be mean D G And I, I'll drink all the time D G 'Cause we're lovers and that is a fact D G Yes we're lovers and that is that C D Though nothing will keep us together C D We could steal time just for one day C G D We can be Heroes for ever and ever What do you say? D G I, I wish you could swim D G Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim C D Though nothing will keep us together C D We can beat them for ever and ever C G D Oh we can be Heroes just for one day REPEAT 1st verse (sing an octave higher, sound desperate) D G I, I can remember D G Standing by the wall D G And the guards shot above our heads D G And we kissed as though nothing could fall C D And the Seine was on the other side C D Oh we can beat them forever and ever C G D Then we can be Heroes just for one day [David Bowie]
