[Verse]
Am                                                      G
Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
F                                                     E
Where’s the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds?
Am                                Em
Isn’t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Dm                                            Esus4                         E
Late at night I toss and turn and I dream of what I need

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

                   Am
Larger than life

Am
Do do do do
Am7/G
Do do do do
F
Do do do do
Esus4 E
Aaah aaah

[Verse]
Am                                                      G
Somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasy,
F                                                      E
Somewhere just beyond my reach there’s someone reaching back for me.
Am                                      Em
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
Dm                                              Esus4                  E
It’s gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet, yeah!

Ulangi [Chorus]

           Am
I need a hero,
                                   Em
I’m holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night

Am

[Bridge]
Am
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above,
F
out where the lightning splits the sea,
Dm                                E                           Am
I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me.

Am
Through the wind and the chill and the rain,
F
and the storm and the flood,
Dm                              E                            Am
I can feel his approach like the fire in my blood

Cdim
like the fire in my blood, like the fire in my blood,
                                                                   Esus4     E
like the fire in my blood, like the fire in my blood, Aaah!

[Ulangi Chorus] 2x
