[Intro]
G Em C2 Dsus4
 
[Verse 1]
          G                        Em
Would you dance if I asked you to dance?
           C2                 Dsus4
Would you run and never look back?
           G                  Em
Would you cry if you saw me crying?
               C2         Dsus4      G     Gsus4
And would you save - my - soul to - night
 
[Verse 2]
            G                        Em
Would you tremble if I touched your lips?
               C2                      Dsus4
Or would you laugh? Oh, Please tell me this
           G                        Em
Would you die now for the one you love?
            C2         Dsus4  G     Gsus4
Oh hold me in - Your - arms tonight
 
[Chorus]
G     D            C2    C/E  -  D/F#
I can be your hero baby
G      D              C2    C/E  -  D/F#
I can kiss away the pain
G        D                 C2    C/E  -  D/F#
I will stand by You for - ever 
G         D       C2
You can take my breath away
 
[Verse 3]
       G                           Em
Would you swear that you'll always be mine?
              C2                Dsus4
Or would you lie? Would you run and hide?
          G                     Em
Am I too deep? Have I lost my mind?
         C2           Dsus4     G     Gsus4
I don't care You're - here - tonight
 
[Chorus]
G     D             C2    C/E  -  D/F#
I can be your hero baby
G      D              C2    C/E  -  D/F#
I can kiss away the pain
G        D                 C2    C/E  -  D/F#
I will stand by You for - ever 
G        D       C2
You can take my breath away

Oh, I just want to hold you
C2
I just want to hold you
Dsus4

          G                     Em
Am I too deep? Have I lost my mind?
         C2           Dsus4     G     Gsus4
I don't care You're - here - tonight

I can kiss away the pain
G        D                 C2    C/E  -  D/F#
I will stand by You for - ever 
G        D       C2

I'm not convinced by that C2 & D/F# in the chorus - it sounds better if you play: G D C C(addD) C Cmaj7 G C(addD) x32030 Cmaj7 x32000

Of course, there is a D/F# chord in between the penultimate and final choruses: [G]You can [D]take my [C]breath away [Cmaj7] [C/E] [D/F#] [G]I can be [D] your [C] hero [CaddD] [C] [Cmaj7] [G]I can [D]kiss away the [C] pain...
