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
Am Em D We could steal time, just for one day
C G D We can be heroes, for ever and ever What d'you say?
( D G D G )
D G I, I wish you could swim
D G Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
C D Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
Am Em D We can beat them, for ever and ever
C G D Oh we can be heroes, just for one day
( D G D G )
D G I, I will be king
D G And you, you will be queen
C D Though nothing will drive us away
Am Em D We can be heroes, just for one day
C G D We can be us, just for one day What d'you say?
D G I, I can remember (I remember)
D G Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
D G And the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
D G And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
C D And the shame, was on the other side
Am Em D Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
C G D Then we could be heroes, just for one day
G D We can be heroes
G D We can be heroes
G We can be heroes
D Just for one day
G We can be heroes
C D We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Am Em D Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
C G D But we could be safer, just for one day
