A5
 One spot on an empty canvas
F5
 One chair in an empty room
C5
 No place for a revolution
G5
 No hope if the signs are true
A5
 We stand at the edge of something
F5
 Will we ever know what it is
C5
 Hold on 'cause the wind is rising
G5
 And we can't get away from it

(intro) A5 F5 C5 G5

A5
 We?re in shock from the failed emotion
F5
 No cause in a shadow land
C5
 We sing while the city's burning
G5
 No room , no escape, no plan
A5             F5                       C5  G5
 We all never thought it would end this way
              A5  F5
And we need a hero
    C5             G5
To save us from ourselves
          A5  F5
We need a hero
    C5             G5
To save us from ourselves

D5               F#5                      E5
 Save us from ourselves, save us from our fears
D5              F#5                   E5
 When the sirens wail, we need a hero here

(inter) C#5 G5 C#5 G5 C#5 G5

A5
 We hide on our knees in silence
F5
 Maybe God doesn't hear at all
C5
 And the wait overtakes the violence
G5
 And we watch as the giants fall
A5                F5            C5   G5
 We're not gonna let it end this way
              A5  F5
And we need a hero
    C5             G5
To save us from ourselves
          A5  F5
We need a hero
    C5             G5
To save us from ourselves

D5               F#5                      E5
 Save us from ourselves, save us from our fears
D5              F#5                   E5
 When the sirens wail, we need a hero here
