Intro: A D A D

Chorus:
A             D
I wish I could swim
         A                           D
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
       Em                     A
Though nothing will keep us together
       Em        Bm           A
We can beat them for ever and ever
             Em    Bm            A
Oh we can be Heroes just for one day

Verse 1:
A             D
I, I will be king
        A             D
And you, you will be queen
       G                       A
Though nothing will drive them away
       G                      A
We can beat them just for one day
          G   D                A
We can be Heroes just for one day
A                  D
And you, you can be mean
     A                  D
And I, I'll drink all the time
             A                     D
'Cause we're lovers and that is a fact
          A                    D
Yes we're lovers and that is that
       G                      A
Though nothing will keep us together
               G                 A
We could steal time just for one day
          G     D             A
We can be Heroes for ever and ever

Verse 2:
A           D
I, I can remember
A              D
Standing by the wall
         A                  D
And the guards shot above our heads
        A                             D
And we kissed as though nothing could fall
       G                      A
And the Seine was on the other side
          G                       A
Oh we can beat them forever and ever
               G      D                A
Then we can be Heroes just for one day

Chorus:
A                  D
I, I wish you could swim
         A                           D
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
       G                        A
Though nothing will keep us together
       G                      A
We can beat them for ever and ever
             G     D             A
Oh we can be Heroes just for one day
