Holding Out for a Hero Lyrics & Tabs by Joss Stone
Holding Out for a Hero
guitar chords lyrics
Where have all good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where? s the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn? t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I need
(techno)
(ohhhh, Ohhh)
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til 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
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til the morning light
And he? s gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til the morning light
(till the morning light)
He? s gotta be sure
And it? s gotta be soon
And he? s gotta be larger than life
Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There? s someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It? s gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet
(intermedial)
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til 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
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til the morning light
He? s gotta be sure
And it? s gotta be soon
And he? s gotta be larger than life
Up Where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I would swear that there? s someone somewhere
Watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach
Like a fire in my blood
(like a fire in my blood 2 t.)
(intermedial)
(hero)
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til 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
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til the morning light
He? s gotta be sure
And it? s gotta be soon
And he? s gotta be larger than life
long intermedial)(fade of)
(hero, hero)
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til 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
I need a hero
I? m holding out for a hero? til the morning light
He? s gotta be sure
And it? s gotta be soon
And he? s gotta be larger than life
