[Verse 1]
E
Fire fighters at the station listen as the tone goes out
Fire alarms activated and building is showing smoke
A E
And so the Engine rolls to trouble again
E
There's people at the scene just watchin'
People running out for their lives
The fire fighters get there and help them out
And go looking for more inside
A E
Cause that's just what they do, these women and men
[Chorus]
A E
Cause they made a promise and here they come
A E
Someone hurtin' called 9-1-1
F#m A B
And the siren's saying hope is on the way
A B A/E E
There's a hero racing to help a stranger today
[Verse 2]
E
Saturday night in the city, the cruiser gets a dispatched call
A little girl says her daddies mad
And drank a bunch of alcohol
A E
And so they head away, into trouble again
E
The people at the house are screaming
And someone yells: " he's got a gun"
A little girl full of panic cries out: " Daddy don't you
shoot my mom"
A
And that's where the cops come in
E
These women and men
[Chorus]
A E
Cause they made a promise and here they come
A E
Someone hurtin' called 9-1-1
F#m A B
And the siren's saying hope is on the way
A B A/E E E/G#
There's a hero racing to help a stranger today
[Bridge]
A
When people in the world need savin'
The saviors who answer the call
E
Don't get paid anymore for danger
E/G#
Or get to pick the one's they want
A
They just go to where the few will go
To maybe lay it all on the line
B C#m
As they do their job, do it one more time
[Chorus]
A E
Cause they made a promise and here they come
A E
Someone hurtin' called 9-1-1
F#m A B
And the siren's saying hope is on the way
A B E
There's a hero racing to help a stranger today
A B A/E E A/E E
There's a hero racing to help a stranger today
