Verse
Em D C
She's watching the taxi driver and pulls away
Em D C
She's been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days
Em D
She says, Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
C
He got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape
Em D C
She's just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name like Lois Lane
Am Cmaj7
And she smiles, oh the way she smiles
[Chorus]
G D
She's talking to angels, counting the stars
Em C
Making a wish on a passing car
G D
Sh'es dancing with strangers, falling apart
Em C
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
Em C D
In his arms,
Em C D
In his arms
Waiting for Superman
[Verse]
Em D C
She's out on the corner trying to catch a glimpse
(still F)
Nothing's making sense
Em D
She's been chasing an answer
C
E sign lost in the abyss, this Metropolis
Em D
She says... Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
C
He got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day
Em D C
She says... If life was a movie, then it wouldn't end like this
Left without a kiss
Am Cmaj7
Still, she smiles, the way she smiles, yeah
[Chorus]
G D
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
Em C
Making a wish on a passing car
G D
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
Em C
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
Em C D
In his arms,
Em C D
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
Em C
To lift her up and take her anywhere
D
Show her love and climbing through the air
Em C D
Save her now before it's too late tonight
Oh, like a speeding light
D
And she smiles
[Chorus]
(pause) G D
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
Em C
Making a wish on a passing car
G D
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
Em C
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
Em C D
In his arms,
Em C D
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
Em C
To lift her up and take her anywhere
D
Show her love and climbing through the air
Em C D
Save her now before it's too late tonight
Em
She’s waiting for Superman
