Verse
C#m B A
She's watching the taxi driver and pulls away
C#m B A
She's been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days
C#m B
She says, Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
A
He got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape
C#m B A
She's just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name like Lois Lane
F#m Amaj7
And she smiles, oh the way she smiles
[Chorus]
E B
She's talking to angels, counting the stars
C#m A
Making a wish on a passing car
E B
Sh'es dancing with strangers, falling apart
C#m A
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
C#m A B
In his arms,
C#m A B
In his arms
Waiting for Superman
[Verse]
C#m B A
She's out on the corner trying to catch a glimpse
(still F)
Nothing's making sense
C#m B
She's been chasing an answer
A
C# sign lost in the abyss, this Metropolis
C#m B
She says... Yeah, he's still coming, just a little bit late
A
He got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day
C#m B A
She says... If life was a movie, then it wouldn't end like this
Left without a kiss
F#m Amaj7
Still, she smiles, the way she smiles, yeah
[Chorus]
E B
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
C#m A
Making a wish on a passing car
E B
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
C#m A
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
C#m A B
In his arms,
C#m A B
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
C#m A
To lift her up and take her anywhere
B
Show her love and climbing through the air
C#m A B
Save her now before it's too late tonight
Oh, like a speeding light
B
And she smiles
[Chorus]
(pause) E B
She's talking to angels, she's counting the stars
C#m A
Making a wish on a passing car
E B
She's dancing with strangers, she's falling apart
C#m A
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
C#m A B
In his arms,
C#m A B
In his arms
She's waiting for Superman
[Verse]
C#m A
To lift her up and take her anywhere
B
Show her love and climbing through the air
C#m A B
Save her now before it's too late tonight
C#m
She’s waiting for Superman
