Standard (EADGBE)

(Verse)

If I, I could be anyone

 Could I, I be your only one?

 If I, I could be anything

 Could I be the secret that you keep

Breath that you breathe

 Your dreams while you sleep?

 If you, if you could read my mind

 Then you, you'd now I crossed that line

 I, I'd make you my Valentine

 I can't let you go but I know

 That this ring is there to remind

(Chorus)

 So let's re-enact that scene

 From what's-his-name's one act play

 I'll be your hero

 And you'll be the one who got away

(Verse)

 Now I'm chasing headlights back home

 And you, you're sitting there on your own

 When we were sippin' martinis

 I started believing I wouldn't be leaving alone

 I told you a joke and you laughed

When I asked you to dance

 You said there's no band, there's no radio

 I got up real slow, started singing real low

 When I was melting in your arms I had to let go

(Chorus)

 So let's re-enact that scene

 From what's-his-name's one act play

 I'll be your hero

 And you'll be the one...

(Bridge)

 If there was no tomorrow

 There were no yesterdays

 The stolen moments we've borrowed

 We wouldn't let slip away

(Chorus)

 So let's re-enact that scene

 From what's-his-name's one act play

 I'll be your hero

 So let's re-enact that scene

 Until our dying day

 I'll be the hero

 And you can the one

 And you'll be the one who got away
