I - I will be King
    D                 G
And you - you will be Queen
    C                       D
For nothing will drive them away
          Am      Em             D
We can beat them - just for one day
          C       G             D
We can be Heroes - just for one day

[Verse]
D                     G
And You- You could be me
    D                   G
And I - I drink all the time
      D                        G
Cause we're lovers - 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 can steal time just for one day
               C      G           D
yeah we can be Heroes forever and ever (what d'you say?)

[Instrumental]
D  G  D  G

[Verse]
D                    G
I - I wish you could swim
         D                            G
Like the dolphins - like dolphins can swim
       C                             D
Though nothing - nothing keeps us together
       Am       Em           D

    D                 G
And you - you will be Queen
    C                        D
For nothing will drive them away
          Am      Em             D
We can be Heroes - just for one day
          C       G             D
We can be honest - just for one day

[Verse]
D           G
I - I can remember
D               G
Standing by the wall
        D            G
And the guards shot above our heads
         D                           G
And we * kissed as though nothing  before

[Bridge]
        C                D
And the shame was on the other side
          Am           Em       D
Oh we can beat them forever and ever
               C      G            D
Then we can be Heroes just for one day
               C      G            D
yeah we can be Heroes just for one day
