I came by today to see you
C F
Though I had to let you know
C Am F
If I knew the last time that I held you was the last time,
C Am G
I'd have held you and never let go
F C
Oh it's kept me awake nights wonderin'
Am C
Lie in the dark, just asking "why?"
F C G
I've always been told you won't be called home until it's your time
F C
I guess Heaven was needing a hero
F G
Somebody just like you
F C Am G
Brave enough to stand up for what you believe and follow it through
Am C F
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
C Am F
The only conclusion I come to
C F C F C
Is that Heaven was needing a hero like you
C F
I remember the last time I saw you
C F
Oh you held your head up proud
C Am F G
I laughed inside when I saw how you were, standing out in the crowd
Am F
You're such a part of who I am
Am C
Now that part will just be void
F C
No matter how much I need you now
G
Heaven needed you more
F C
'Cause Heaven was needing a hero
F G
Somebody just like you
F C Am G
Brave enough to stand up for what you believe and follow it through
Am C F
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
C Am F
The only conclusion I come to
C F C F C
Is that Heaven was needing a hero like you
F C F C
Yes, Heaven was needing a hero...that's you.
