[Verse 1]
[Am]Where are the hero[F]es
[Am]In my time of need[F]?
Is [C]my cry not [Bb]loud enough
Or have [F]they gone all [E]numb?

[Verse 2]
[Am]They just tend to stan[F]d
[Am]Out of the rain[F]
[C]Thinking but not [Bb]acting
That [F]they're not to [E]blame

[Verse 3]
[Dm]Falling and crawling
[Am]A fight to stand up
[G]Memory still haunts me
[Em]In the [F]dead of night

[Verse 4]
[Dm]Over and o[Am]ver, I felt so small
But [G]one day I'll be stronger
And you [E]better watch out

[Verse 5]
[Am]I will overcome,[F]
your [C]violence their silence
Al[E]though it can't be un[Am]done
I will overcome,
[F]kno[C]wing that I'm not the onl[E]y one[Am]
I will overcome,
it's [F]the [C]only way to [E]carry [F]on

[Verse 6]
[Am]Where are the savi[F]ors?
[Am]Afraid of the toll[F]
[C]Sorry, do [Bb]my nine inch n[F]ails
Slash your [E]soul

[Verse 7]
[Am]Such heroe[F]s
[Am]Throwing stone[F]s
[C]Straight at the [Bb]one
Who is [F]standing [E]alone

[Verse 8]
[Dm]Twisting and turning
[Am]It's always the same
[G]Truth is never honest
[Em]When [F]you're to [Dm]blame

[Verse 9]
Pushing [Am]and pulling
Never give in, [G]one day I wish
You'll see you're [E]not so
beautiful [Am]within
I will overcome, [F]our [C]violence your silence Al

[Verse 10]
[E]
though it can't be un[Am]done
I will overcome,
[F]kno[C]wing that I'm not the[E] only one[Am]

Run an[F]d run[G]

[Verse 11]
[Am]
[G]Run [F]and run[Dm][Esus4]

[F]wil[G]l o[Am]verc[G]ome,[F][Dm][Esus4][E][Bm][G]
their [D]violence your silence
Al[F#]though it can't be [Bm]un done

I will over[G]come, it's the
[D]only way to [F#]carry on

[Verse 13]
I will [G]overcome
