              Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? 
                  C#m 
Would you lay your life down? 
 
Would you give an arm or a leg? 
             A 
Are we gonna fight now? 
 
'Cause baby, it's the world we're against 
          F# 
Is it our time now, right now 
                    C#m 
Or is it just me in the end? 
              C#m 
Is our future bright now? 
 
Tell me, is the dark seeping in? 
          A 
Are we alright now? 
 
Are we barely breathing again? 
          F# 
Is it our time now, right now 
                       C#m 
Or is it just me in the end? 
              C#m 
Will you come running when I scream your name? 
                   A 
The wolves are out hunting and they're coming for me 
         F#                    C#m 
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? (be my own hero) 
              C#m 
Will you come running? I need to know 
        A 
An army of two, or am I all alone? 
         F#                  C#m 
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? (be my own hero) 
C#m 
I don't know how I'm gonna do it 
                                A 
But I'm gonna do it with or without you 
F# 
I don't know how I'm gonna do it 
                                        C#m 
But I'm gonna do it if it's the last thing I do 
C#m 
Do I gotta save my own life, save my own life 
                 A 
For my whole life? Whoa 
    F# 
And do I gotta find my own light, find my own light 
                 C#m 
For my whole life? Whoa 
 
              C#m 
Will you come running when I scream your name? 
                   A 
The wolves are out hunting and they're coming for me 
         F#                    C#m 
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? (be my own hero) 
              C#m 
Will you come running? I need to know 
        A 
An army of two, or am I all alone? 
         F#                   C#m 
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? (be my own hero) 
C#m   A 
Whoa, whoa 
F#    C#m 
Whoa, whoa 
 
                  C#m 
Would you lay your life down? 
 
Would you give an arm or a leg? 
             A 
Are we gonna fight now? 
 
'Cause baby, it's the world we're against 
          F# 
Is it our time now, right now 
                      C#m 
Or is it just me in the end? Yeah 
 
               C#m 
Will you come running when I scream your name? 
                   A 
The wolves are out hunting and they're coming for me 
         F#                   C#m 
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? 
(Be my own hero) 
           C#m 
Will you come running? I need to know 
       A 
An army of two, or am I all alone? 
         F#                   C#m 
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero? 
(Be my own hero) 
         F#                   C#m 
Tell me, do I need to be my own hero?
