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