A DIt must have been cold there in my shadow,A D to never have sunlight on your face.Bm EYou were content to let me shine; that's your way.Bm EYou always walked a step behind.

A DSo I was the one with all the glory,A Dwhile you were the one with all the strain.Bm E A beautiful face without a name; for so long.Bm E C#7A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

F#m D ADid you ever know that you're my hero,F#m D A Eand everything I would like to be?F#m D A EI can fly higher than an eagle D A Afor you are the wind beneath my wings.

A DIt might have appeared to go unnoticed,A Dbut I've got it all here in my heart.Bm E I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.Bm E C#7I would be nothing without you.

F#m D ADid you ever know that you're my hero,F#m D A Eand everything I would like to be?F#m D A EI can fly higher than an eagle D A Afor you are the wind beneath my wings.
