Intro:
Am Am7/G F (2x)


Verse 1:
C                  F
I came by today to see you
C                       F
Though I had to let you know
C              Am/B             Am              Am7/G
If I knew the last time that I held you was the last time,
          F                     G
I'd have held you and never let go

Verse 2:
Am       Am7/G                  F
Oh it's kept me awake nights wonderin'
Am          Am7/G               F
Lie in the dark, just asking "why?"
C          C/B          Am
I've always been told
       Am7/G            F
you won't be called home
                 G
until it's your time

Chorus:
        C                    F
I guess Heaven was needing a hero
C                   F
Somebody just like you
C        Am/B         Am     Am7/G         F                    G
Brave enough to stand up for what you believe and follow it through
       Am             Am7/G           F
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
    Am       Am7/G        F
The only conclusion I come to
        C          G         F    G         Am Am7/G F (2X)
Is that Heaven was needing a hero like you


Verse 3:
C                   F
I remember the last time I saw you
C                        F
Oh you held your head up proud
C           Am/B        Am   Am7/G      F                           G
I laughed inside when I ....saw how you were, standing out in the crowd


Verse 4:
Am        G            F
You're such a part of who I am
Am         G                F
Now that part will just be void
C         Am/B      Am        Am7/G
No matter how much I need you now
F                  G
Heaven needed you more


Outro:
C          G          F    G
Heaven was needing a hero
           C Am/B Am G   Am
that's you
