[Verse]
                                     G                     
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods
F                                  Em                   
Where's the streetwise Hercules to fight the rising odds
Am                            Em                 E7
■  Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed ■ 
Dm                                       E7                  
■  Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what I need
       Am    
I need a hero


[Chorus]
                      Em                             
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night
     F                                               C                       G    
He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast and he's gotta be fresh from the fight
         Am  
I need a hero
                      Em                          
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the morning light
     F                                             C                    G   
He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life
Am              
Larger than life

[Verse]
                            G                 
Somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasy
F                                      E7                        Em
Somewhere just beyond my reach there's someone reaching back for me
Am                           Em                  
■  Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
Dm                               Em                  
■  It's gonna take a Superman to sweep me off my feet
Am           
I need a hero


[Chorus]
                      Em                             
I'm holding out for a hero till 'the end of the night
     F                                               C                       G    
He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast and he's gotta be fresh from the fight
         Am  
I need a hero
                      Em                          
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the morning light
     F                      Dm                     C                    G   
He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life

[Verse]
Am                                      F    
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
                                       Dm
Out where the lightning splits the sea ■ 
                       E7                Am          A7
I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me ■ 


[Bridge]
Am7 Am                       A7                
■   Through the wind and the chill and the rain
F                            
■ And the storm and the flood
Dm                                        Am   
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood
       Em       
I need ■  a hero


[Chorus]
Am                    Em                             
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night

He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast and he's gotta be fresh from the fight
         Am  
I need a hero
                      Em                          
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the morning light

He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life
         Am  
I need a hero
                    Em                               
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night

He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast and he's gotta be fresh from the fight
         Am  
I need a hero
                      Em                          
I'm holding out for a hero 'till the morning light
