[Intro:] D - G - Bm [x2]



D                                 G             Bm
There are some days that are bad right from the start
D                                G        Bm
There are some words that seem to leave a mark
D                        G      Bm
There are times you'd rather an arrow through the heart
        D                 G                Bm
Than to keep walking this tightrope in the dark



Bm        D          A
I saw you stumble, I saw you fall
Bm            D         A
And I saw you rise up above it all



Bm                               G
You don't know dear what the day may bring
     D
With all of us here we must stand and sing
          Bm     G
You're my hero, 
    D                        A
The way you got through it all
Bm                               G
You don't know dear what the day may bring
     D
With all of us here we must stand and sing
          Bm     G
You're my hero, 
          D      A
You're my hero



D - G - Bm [x2]



     D                     G       Bm
Only we know you faced the great divide
     D              G         Bm
Only you know what it took to make it to the other side
    D                     G             Bm
You stared down your monster when every muscle wanted to hide
      D                   G                  Bm
And I wish you hadn't had to, but now you're stronger inside



Bm        D          A
I saw you stumble, I saw you fall
Bm            D         A
And I saw you rise up above it all



Bm                               G
You don't know dear what the day may bring
     D
With all of us here we must stand and sing
          Bm     G
You're my hero, 
    D                        A
The way you got through it all
Bm                               G
You don't know dear what the day may bring
     D
With all of us here we must stand and sing
          Bm     G
You're my hero, 
          D      A
You're my hero



A               Bm
You light up my life
                G
You light up my life

You light up my life



A                   Bm                       G
Cause you were just waiting for the day to arrive
                                      A
Just a bird in a cage waiting for sunlight
              Bm                   G
You were just waiting, but now its time
                    D      Bm
Cause you're alive, you're alive



G - D - Bm - G - D - A [x1]



Bm                               G
You don't know dear what the day may bring
     D                               A
With all of us here you must stand and sing
          Bm - G
You're my hero



Bm - G - D
           Cause you're my hero,
Bm - G - D                 A
           Cause you're my hero,
Bm - G - D
           Cause you're my hero,
Bm - G - D                 A     D
           Cause you're my hero
