Heroine chords and lyrics - LOU REED

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
The heroine [Dm]stood [Em]up on the deck
[G]The ship was out of con[D]trol
The bow was [Em]being ripped [G]to shreds
Men were fighting down below
The sea had pummeled
the boat [Em]for so long
That they [G]knew nothing but fear
[Bb]

[Verse 2]
And the [Cm]baby's [C]in the box,
[Am]he thinks the door is locked
The [C]sea is in a state, the [Am]baby learns to wait
[G]For the her[C]oine,
[F]ooo[G]hh for the heroin[C]e
[F]Locked in his de[G]fense,
he waits [C]for the heroine

[Interlude 1]
[Em][G][Am][Em][G][Em][A]

[Verse 3]
[D]The mast [Dm]is cracki[F]ng as
[Em]he waves are slapping
[G]Sailors roll across the deck
And when they thought none
[A]was looking
They would [G]cut a weaker
man's neck
While the [D]heroine dressed in
a [Em]virgin white dress
Tried to [G]steer the mighty ship
But the ra[D]ging storm
wouldn't [Em]hear of it
They were [G]in for a long [Bb]trip

[Verse 4]
[C]Baby's in the box,
[Am]he thinks the door is locked
[G]He fin[C]ds it hard to breathe,
[Am]drawing in the sea
And where's the [C]heroine [F]to fire off the gun
To [C]calm the raging seas and [F]let

[Verse 5]
herself be seized by the
[C]Baby in the box,
[Am]he thinks the door is locked
The [C]woman has the keys
But there is no [Bbdim]moment she can seize
[A]Here's to the [F]heroine,
who [G]transcends all the men
Who are [C]locked inside the box
Will the [Am]lady let them out
[F]Ooohh the [Bb]hero[C]ine,[F]
[Bb]oooh[F]h the [C]hero[G]ine[C]
[Bb]Strapped to the [F]mast,
[G]the pale ascendant [C]heroine

[Outro 1]
[Bb][F][C][G][C][Bb][F][G][C]
