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