Listen for strumming pattern.
Sounds like twice on the bass strings then the rest.
Have included the bass line as well because I think it adds a lot to the
song.

[Verse 1]

D G
I.... I wish I could swim,
D G
Like the dolphins.... like dolpins can swim,
AM7 G D (Electric guitar enters)
Though nothing.... nothing will keep us together,
AM7 G D
We can beat them.... forever and ever,
AM7 G D
Oh we can be heroes.... just for one day,

[Verse 2]

D G
I.... I will be King,
D G
And you.... you will be Queen,
AM7 G D
Though nothing.... will drive them away,


[Chorus 1]

AM7 G D
We can be heroes.... just for one day,
AM7 G D
We can be us.... just for one day,


[Verse 2]

D G
I.... I can remember,
D G
Standing.... by walls,
D G
And the guns.... shot above our heads,
D G
And we kissed.... saw nothing before,
AM7 G D
And the shame.... was on the other side,


[Chorus 2]

AM7 G D
Oh we can beat them.... forever and ever,
AM7 G D
Then we can be heroes.... just for one day,


[Outro]

D G D
We can be heroes
G D
We can be heroes
G
We can be heroes
D
Just for one day.
