Verse
Dm C A#
She's watching the taxi driver and pulls away
Dm C A#
She's been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days
Dm C
She says, Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
A#
He got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape
Dm C A#
She's just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name like Lois Lane
Gm A#maj7
And she smiles, oh the way she smiles
[Chorus]
F C
She's talking to angels, counting the stars
Dm A#
Making a wish on a passing car
F C
Sh'es dancing with strangers, falling apart
Dm A#
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
Dm A# C
In his arms,
Dm A# C
In his arms
Waiting for Superman
[Verse]
Dm C A#
She's out on the corner trying to catch a glimpse
(still F)
Nothing's making sense
Dm C
She's been chasing an answer
A#
D sign lost in the abyss, this Metropolis
Dm C
She says... Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
A#
He got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day
Dm C A#
She says... If life was a movie, then it wouldn't end like this
Left without a kiss
Gm A#maj7
Still, she smiles, the way she smiles, yeah
[Chorus]
F C
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
Dm A#
Making a wish on a passing car
F C
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
Dm A#
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
Dm A# C
In his arms,
Dm A# C
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
Dm A#
To lift her up and take her anywhere
C
Show her love and climbing through the air
Dm A# C
Save her now before it's too late tonight
Oh, like a speeding light
C
And she smiles
[Chorus]
(pause) F C
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
Dm A#
Making a wish on a passing car
F C
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
Dm A#
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
Dm A# C
In his arms,
Dm A# C
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
Dm A#
To lift her up and take her anywhere
C
Show her love and climbing through the air
Dm A# C
Save her now before it's too late tonight
Dm
She’s waiting for Superman
