[Verse 1]
A Em
Little girl, only seventeen years old
G D
Life just got in the way
A
Don't know what to say
Em
She's heard it all before
G
Lying on her bedroom floor
D
Thinking my life has to be worth more
A Em
She dreams of going to New York City
G
Her heart's already there
D
But her head's fighting a war
A Em
Little girl, only seventeen years old
G D
Looking for a star but it's just too dark
[Pre-Chorus]
A Em
When streams get a little bit wider
G D
And it's hard to swim across the water
A Em
And the scars get a little bit deeper
D G D
And a flame turns into a fire
A Em
Tonight whеn you need a way home
G D
Someone to lеan on, some kind of hero
A Em
It's there when you look in the mirror
G
Staring back at you
[Chorus]
N.C. A
There's a hero in you
Em
You, you
G D
You, you
A
There's a hero in you
Em
You, you
G D
You, you
A
There's a hero in you
[Verse 2]
Em
Old man trying to make it on his own
G D
Looking at the space where his wife once was
A Em
Wants to find just something to believe in
G D
He hears a knock at the door this evening
A Em G
She says I'm going to New York City to follow my dreams
D
Would you come with me?
A Em
Little girl, only seventeen years old
G D
Looking at the stars in her granddad's eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
A Em
And streams get a little bit wider
G D
But together they cross the river
A Em
And the scars get a little bit lighter
D G D
And the sky looks a little brighter
A Em
Tonight when you need a way home
G D
Someone to lеan on, some kind of hero
A Em
It's there when you look in the mirror
G
Staring back at you
[Chorus]
N.C. A
There's a hero in you
Em
You, you
G D
You, you
A
There's a hero in you
Em
You, you
G D
You, you
A
There's a hero in you
