Superman

(played in the order given and with ska upstrokes)
   [D]    [A]    [Em]   [Bm]   [Em]   [F#m]  [G]   [A]

[D]So here I [A]am, doing [Em]everything I c[Bm]an.  Holding o[Em]n to what I
[F#m]am, pretending I[G]'m a superma[A]n.

(Verse:)(ska upstrokes)
[D]I'm trying to [A]keep  [Em]the ground on my [Bm]feet.
It [G]seems the world's [D]falling down [A]around me.
[D]The nights are all [A]long, [Em]I'm singing this [Bm]song
to [G]try and make the [D]answers more than [A]maybe.

(This part uses barre chords:)
And I'm [G]so [D]con-[A]fused, about [F#m]what to[E] do[D], someti[G]mes I wanna
[A]throw it all away[D].

[D]So here I [A]am, looking [Em]older all the [Bm]time. Growing [Em]older
all the [F#m]time, feeling [Em]younger in my [A]mind.

[D]I'm trying to [A]sleep.[Em] I lost count of [Bm]sheep.
My [G]mind is racing [D]faster every [A]minute. [D] What could
I do [A]more?[Em] Yeah I'm really not [F#m]sure. I [G]know I'm
running [D]circles but I [A]can't quit.
And I'm [G]so [D]con[A]fused about [F#m]what t[E]o d[D]o.
Some[G]times I want to [A]throw it all away.

[Am]Controlling everything in [Bm]sight, I'm feeling weak I don't
feel [Em]right. You're telling me I have to [Am]change, telling[Bm] me
to act my [Em]age. But if all that I can [Am]do is just [Bm]sit and
watch time [Em]go, then I'll have to say goodb[Am]ye. Life's too
[Bm]                [Em]             Loud [F]  Loud [G]
short to watch it fly, so watch it flyyyyyyyyyy.
