[Intro]
C
I was just calling to say Hi
C
And I had a really long day
F
And would just love to hear your voice now
F
Shoot me a call back
[Verse 1]
C
Feeling sentimental when I stop and think about it
C
I remember when I had what I wanted
F
You were waiting by the lake like you promised
F
Words are falling from my mouth like a faucet
C
Falling backwards in slow motion to the sound of
C
Your voice on the phone, it gave me good luck
F
Now you're gone but I'll always have a taste
F
I can settle for your voice if I can't have your face
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am F
I was making you a playlist
G
Kings of Leon and Oasis
Am F
Tell me how can I make this better for you
[Chorus]
F C
I wanna be a hero
G Am
Someone who can save you when it's tough
F C
I wanna be a hero
G Am
Someone who could give you all their love
F C
I wanna be a hero
G Am
When you're scared and when it's rough
F C
I wanna be a hero
G Am
Would I ever really be enough?
N.G#
I wanna be a hero

[Verse 2]
C
It feels detrimental that we stop and talk about it
C
We can find out what we both wanted
F
Doesn't have to be a fight when we talk
F
But please don't walk away from me
C
Tripping over my own words like a boulder
C
Need someone to lean on like a shoulder
F
Instead I have my own thoughts in the rains
F
Wish I could be right back inside your place
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am F
I was making you a playlist
G
Kings of Leon and Oasis
Am F
Tell me how can I make this better for you

Someone who could give you all their love

When you're scared and when it's rough
F C
I wanna be a hero

Would I ever really be enough?
