Verse
G#m F# E
She's watching the taxi driver and pulls away
G#m F# E
She's been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days
G#m F#
She says, Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
E
He got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape
G#m F# E
She's just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name like Lois Lane
C#m Emaj7
And she smiles, oh the way she smiles
[Chorus]
B F#
She's talking to angels, counting the stars
G#m E
Making a wish on a passing car
B F#
Sh'es dancing with strangers, falling apart
G#m E
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
G#m E F#
In his arms,
G#m E F#
In his arms
Waiting for Superman
[Verse]
G#m F# E
She's out on the corner trying to catch a glimpse
(still F)
Nothing's making sense
G#m F#
She's been chasing an answer
E
G# sign lost in the abyss, this Metropolis
G#m F#
She says... Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
E
He got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day
G#m F# E
She says... If life was a movie, then it wouldn't end like this
Left without a kiss
C#m Emaj7
Still, she smiles, the way she smiles, yeah
[Chorus]
B F#
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
G#m E
Making a wish on a passing car
B F#
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
G#m E
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
G#m E F#
In his arms,
G#m E F#
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
G#m E
To lift her up and take her anywhere
F#
Show her love and climbing through the air
G#m E F#
Save her now before it's too late tonight
Oh, like a speeding light
F#
And she smiles
[Chorus]
(pause) B F#
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
G#m E
Making a wish on a passing car
B F#
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
G#m E
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
G#m E F#
In his arms,
G#m E F#
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
G#m E
To lift her up and take her anywhere
F#
Show her love and climbing through the air
G#m E F#
Save her now before it's too late tonight
G#m
She’s waiting for Superman
