[Intro]
A#
I was just calling to say Hi
A#
And I had a really long day
D#
And would just love to hear your voice now
D#
Shoot me a call back
[Verse 1]
A#
Feeling sentimental when I stop and think about it
A#
I remember when I had what I wanted
D#
You were waiting by the lake like you promised
D#
Words are falling from my mouth like a faucet
A#
Falling backwards in slow motion to the sound of
A#
Your voice on the phone, it gave me good luck
D#
Now you're gone but I'll always have a taste
D#
I can settle for your voice if I can't have your face
[Pre-Chorus]
F Gm D#
I was making you a playlist
F
Kings of Leon and Oasis
Gm D#
Tell me how can I make this better for you
[Chorus]
D# A#
I wanna be a hero
F Gm
Someone who can save you when it's tough
D# A#
I wanna be a hero
F Gm
Someone who could give you all their love
D# A#
I wanna be a hero
F Gm
When you're scared and when it's rough
D# A#
I wanna be a hero
F Gm
Would I ever really be enough?
N.F#
I wanna be a hero
[Drop] (Play D# for four beats, the other chords for 2 each)
D# F Gm
I wanna be a hero
D# F Cm
[Verse 2]
A#
It feels detrimental that we stop and talk about it
A#
We can find out what we both wanted
D#
Doesn't have to be a fight when we talk
D#
But please don't walk away from me
A#
Tripping over my own words like a boulder
A#
Need someone to lean on like a shoulder
D#
Instead I have my own thoughts in the rains
D#
Wish I could be right back inside your place
[Pre-Chorus]
F Gm D#
