It must have been cold there in my shadow
C F
To never have sunlight on your face
Dm G (G7)
You were content to let me shine
Dm G
You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory
C F
While you were the one with all the strength
Dm G (G7)
A beautiful face without a name
Dm G (Gsus7)
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
Chorus: Am F C (decend Notes)
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
Am F C (decend)
And everything I'd like to be?

I could fly higher than an eagle,
F G C
Cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
C F
It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
C F
But I have it all here in my heart.
Dm G (G7)
I want you to know I know the truth
Dm G (Gsus7)
I would be nothing without you.
