Verse:
E minorEm                  D MajorD
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
C majorC                  BB
Where’s the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds?
E minorEm             B minorBm
Isn’t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
A minorAm                   Bsus4Bsus4      BB
  Late at night I toss and turn and I dream of what I need.

Chorus:
     E minorEm             B minorBm
I need a hero, I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night,
   C majorC
He’s gotta be strong and he’s gotta be fast,
     G+G            D MajorD
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight.
     E minorEm             B minorBm
I need a hero, I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light,
   C majorC
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon,
     G+G          D MajorD
And he’s gotta be larger than life...


Verse:
E minorEm                  D MajorD
Somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasy,
C majorC                  BB
Somewhere just beyond my reach there’s someone reaching back for me.
E minorEm             B minorBm
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
A minorAm               Bsus4Bsus4      BB
It’s gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet, yeah!


Chorus:
     E minorEm             B minorBm
I need a hero, I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night,
   C majorC
He’s gotta be strong and he’s gotta be fast,
     G+G            D MajorD
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight.
     E minorEm             B minorBm
I need a hero, I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light,
   C majorC            Am7Am7
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon,
     G+G          D MajorD
And he’s gotta be larger than life...

Bridge:
E minorEm
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above,
C majorC
out where the lightning splits the sea,
A minorAm           BB         E minorEm
I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me.

E minorEm
Through the wind and the chill and the rain,
C majorC
and the storm and the flood,
A minorAm           BB         E minorEm
I can feel his approach like the fire in my blood

Chorus:
     E minorEm             B minorBm
I need a hero, I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night,
   C majorC
He’s gotta be strong and he’s gotta be fast,
     G+G            D MajorD
And he’s gotta be fresh from the fight.
     E minorEm             B minorBm
I need a hero, I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light,
   C majorC            Am7Am7
He’s gotta be sure, and it’s gotta be soon,
     G+G          D MajorD
And he’s gotta be larger than life...
