HEROES IN BLACK AND WHITE
G
When I was young, I'm thinkin' 'bout what
Em C
Life would be in black and white, playing on our old TV
D
You never failed me, you were all I needed to know
G
On your white horse, you were my heroes
G
All that lady, girl of my childhood dreams,
Em C
The guy in black was always chasing her it seems,
D
But I never worried virtue triumph in the end,
G
And now I cheer you way back then
G
All those movies in black and white
Em C
It was easy to tell the wrong from right,
D
When the bad guy loses in the end
G
And the good guy win the lady's hand,
G
We still need you if the truth were told
Em C
The color's fine and they improved the tone
D
But I'd rather get the ending right,
G
We still need heroes, heroes in black and white
G
Now I'm older and the world is a different place to see,
Em C
The black and white looks a little grey to me,
D
And I have changed, cause there has been some compromised,
G
And the lady looks a little sad but wise,
G
Late at night, far past the at ten
Em C
They're on the re-runs riding for the truth again,
D
Sometimes I see you and I'm sure it's time you win the fight,
G
I still need heroes, heroes in black and white
G
All those movies in black and white
Em C
It was easy to tell the wrong from right,
D
When the bad guy loses in the end
G
And the good guy win the lady's hand,
G
We still need you if the truth were told
Em C
The color's fine and they improved the tone
D
But I'd rather get the ending right,
G
We still need heroes in black and white
