Capo 2
   AmWhere are the Fheroes
   AmIn my time of Fneed
   Is Cmy crying aBbbandoned?
   Or have Fthey gone 
   Oh Eno
They just tend to stand
Out of the rain
Thinking but not acting
That they're not to blame
   FFalling and crawling
   AmA fight to stand up
   GMemory still haunts me
   In the Fdead of night
   FOver and over
   AmI felt so small
   But Gone day I'll be stronger
   And you Ebetter watch out
   AmI will overFcome
   In Cviolence there's silence
   Oh Eno, 
   It can't be unAmdone
   I will overFcome
   CKnowing that I'm not the Eonly Amone
   I will overFcome
   It's the Conly way to Ecarry on
Where are the saviours
Afraid of the toll
Sorry do my nine inch nails
Slash your soul?
Such heroes
Throwing stones
Straight at the one
Who is standing alone?
Twisting and turning
It's always the same
The truth is never honest
When you're to blame
Pushing and pulling
Never give in
One day I wish
You see you're not so beautiful within
   ERun and FrunG  Am  
   Run and FrunG  Am  
[Repeat chorus two steps higher]
I will overGcome

Capo 2

Am F

Where are the heroes

Am F

In my time of need

C Bb

Is my crying abandoned?

Or have they gone

Oh no

They just tend to stand

Out of the rain

Thinking but not acting

That they're not to blame

Falling and crawling

A fight to stand up

Memory still haunts me

In the dead of night

Over and over

I felt so small

But one day I'll be stronger

And you better watch out

Am F

I will overcome

In violence there's silence

Oh no,

It can't be undone

I will overcome

C E Am

Knowing that I'm not the only one

I will overcome

C E

It's the only way to carry on

Where are the saviours

Afraid of the toll

Sorry do my nine inch nails

Slash your soul?

Such heroes

Throwing stones

Straight at the one

Who is standing alone?

Twisting and turning

It's always the same

The truth is never honest

When you're to blame

Pushing and pulling

Never give in

One day I wish

You see you're not so beautiful within

E F G Am

Run and run

F G Am

Run and run

[Repeat chorus two steps higher]

I will overcome
