F  Dm  Am
F  Dm  Am    F

[Verse 1]
          Dm               Am                      F
I'd just about convinced myself that life was fine
         Dm            Am   F
I wanted to believe it too
             Dm               Am            C                 F
'Cause guaranteed affection's always been a favourite drug of mine
    Am              F
And you kept coming through

[Chorus]
    C
And I don't think you understand
        D7                                  F
I'm not Lois Lane, you're not Superman, and
                             C
No one's gonna save me from myself
                                     D7
And you keep trying to rescue me with anything and everything
        F                             C       F
But the only thing I want is something else

[Verse 2]
        Dm               Am                   F
Pickin' up the pieces is what you do the best
           Dm               Am     F
You dry my tears and buy me shoes
       Dm              Am               C         F
I only wish I felt the kind of love you want me to confess
    Am             F
But I can't lie to you

[Chorus]
    C
And I don't think you understand
        D7                                  F
I'm not Lois Lane, you're not Superman, and
                             C
No one's gonna save me from myself
                                     D7
And you keep trying to rescue me with anything and everything
        F                    Am
But the only thing I want is

[Bridge]
                     F
Is something unexpected
                  Bb
Something undirected
                      F
I don't wanna stay here
       G
Just because it's safe here

[Chorus]
    C
And I don't think you understand
        D7                                  F
I'm not Lois Lane, you're not Superman, and
                             C
No one's gonna save me from myself
                                     D7
And you keep trying to rescue me with anything and everything
        F                              C
But the only thing I want is something else

[Chorus]
    C
And I can't make you understand
    D7                                       F
I'm not Lois Lane, you're not Spiderman, and
                           C
No one's gonna save me from myself
                                     D7
And you keep trying to rescue me with anything and everything
        F                              Am   G
But the only thing I want is something else
          F                              Am   G  F
Yeah, the only thing I want is something else
