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 1] 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
