Bonnie Tyler - Holding Out For a Hero

Originally in Am, I play in Am capo 5, or possibly in Em

Highest note is the 5 (in the bridge)

I play just once through the intro, play the first

verse slow and rubato, and hit it hard on the first chorus.

AmAm7/GFmaj7EaugE

x2, second time with “do do do”

Vox on the 5

AmWhere have all the good men gone and Gwhere are all the gods?

FWhere’s the street-wise Hercules to Eaugfight the rising Eodds?

AmIsn’t there a white knight uEmpon a fiery steed?

DmLate at night I toss and turn and I drEaugeam of what I nEeed

AmDo do do do

Am7/GDo do do do

Fmaj7Do do do do

EaugAaah Eaaah

AmSomewhere after midnight in my Gwildest fantasy

FSomewhere just beyond my reach there’s Eaugsomeone reaching back for Eme

AmRacing on the thunder and riEmsing with the heat

The “yeah” is an extra measure in this line

DmIt’s gonna take a superman to Eaugsweep me off my Efeet, yeah!

F/ADm/ABm7b5/AAm

AmUp where the mountains meet the heavens above

FOut where the lightning splits the sea

DmI could swear there is Esomeone somewhere Amwatching me

AmThrough the wind and the chill and the rain

FAnd the storm and the flood

DmI can feel his approachElike the fire in my Amblood

Ebdim7Like the fire in my blood, like the fire in my blood

Like the fire in my blood, like the fire in my Eaugblood, Eaah
