Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Where are the heroes
 In my time of need
  Is my  crying abandoned?
  Or have they  gone
  Oh no
 They just tend to stand
 Out of the rain
 Thinking but not acting
 That they're not to blame
 Falling and crawling
 A fight to stand up
  Memory  still haunts me
  In the dead  of night
 Over and over
 I felt so small
  But one  day I'll be stronger
  And you better  watch out
 I will overcome
  In violence  there's silence
  Oh no,
  It can't be undone
  I will overcome
  Knowing  that I'm not the only one
  I will overcome
  It's the only  way to carry  on
 Where are the saviours
 Afraid of the toll
 Sorry do my nine inch nails
 Slash your soul?
 Such heroes
 Throwing stones
 Straight at the one
 Who is standing alone?
 Twisting and turning
 It's always the same
 The truth is never honest
 When you're to blame
 Pushing and pulling
 Never give in
 One day I wish
 You see you're not so beautiful within
 Run and run
  Run and run
 I will overcome
