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