Verse
F C
He came from another place deep in his mind
Am G
As far as the planets in space
F C
As galaxy's mysteries start to unwind
D G
Some changes are bound to take place
Am Em
Though gravity constantly weighs on my travels
Am Em
My mission is close to adrift
Am Em
Though I can be strong when my power unravels
D G
I still come to you for a lift
[Chorus]
C
I don't want to be like old George Reeves
F G C
Stuck in a Superman role
Am Em
I've got a long way to go in my career
Am Em
And someday my fame will make it clear
D G C G
That I had to be a Superman
[Verse 2]
F C
I know I can fly when my plane hits the sky
Am G
I believe I've got nothing to lose
F C
But when I'm alone with the bed and the phone
D G
I get the terminal metropolis blues
Am Em
I flew to the coast where Superman's Ghost
Am Em
Lay shot on the bedroom floor
Am Em
He said "Watch out for TV it crucified me
D G
But it can't crucify me no more."
[Chorus]
C
I don't want to be like old George Reeves
F G C
Stuck in a Superman role
Am Em
I've got a long way to go in my career
Am Em
And someday my fame will make it clear
D G C G
That I had to be a Superman
[Verse 3]
F C
"I'm red white and blue, I've got justice to do
Am G
I'm the man of your fantasy dreams
F C
But I'm an alien man from an alien land
D G
Who's alive on your orthicon screens
Am Em
I once ruled the world and when flags were unfurled
Am Em
I performed for you live not on tape
Am Em
But the public is cruel when played for a fool
D G
As you see by the blood on my cape."
[Chorus]
C
I don't want to be like old George Reeves
F G C
Stuck in a Superman role
Am Em
I've got a long way to go in my career
Am Em
And someday my fame will make it clear
D G C G
That I had to be a Superman
[Verse 4]
F C
"Well I never was real or stronger than steel
Am G
I'm a figment of Freudian need
F C
And the video screen is a psychotic scene
D G
And it's all done with mirrors and green
Am Em
My agent just called, the talks have been stalled
Am Em
I soon will be pulled from the air
Am Em
But the image persists in the video mists
D G
That a Superman still will be there!"
[Chorus]
C
I don't want to be like old George Reeves
F G C
Stuck in a Superman role
Am Em
I've got a long way to go in my career
Am Em
And someday my fame will make it clear
D G C G
That I had to be a Superman
