I, I can remember (I remember). Standing by the wall (By the wall)

        D            G
And the guards shot above our heads (Over our heads)
       D                              G
And we kissed as though nothing would fall (Nothing could fall)

        C                D                     Am           Em       D

Then we can be Heroes just for one day

We're nothing, and nothing will help us
             C                    D
Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
                C    G              D
But we could be safer, just for one day

(Fades out)

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, 
just for one day
