Five for Fighting - Superman

[Intro]
C G Am F
(x2)

[Verse 1]
C G
I can’t stand to fly
Am F
I’m not that naive
C G
I’m just out to find
Am F
The better part of me

[Chorus]
C G
I’m more than a bird, I’m more than a plane
Am F
I’m more than some pretty face beside a train
C G F C
It’s not easy to be me

[Verse 2]
C G
I wish that I could cry
Am F
Fall upon my knees
C G
Find a way to lie
Am F
‘Bout a home I’ll never see

[Chorus]
C G
It may sound absurd but don’t be naive
Am F
Even heroes have the right to bleed
C G
I may be disturbed but won’t you concede
Am F
Even heroes have the right to dream
C G F C G/B
And it’s not easy to be me

[Bridge]
Am G/B C Dm Am
Up, up and away, away from me
D
Well, it’s alright
C D
You can all sleep sound tonight
F G
I’m not crazy or anything

[Verse 3]
C G
I can’t stand to fly
Am F
I’m not that naive
C G
Men weren’t meant to ride
Am F
With clouds between their knees

[Chorus]
C G
I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Am F
Digging for kryptonite on this one-way street
C G
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Am F
Looking for special things inside of me

[Bridge]
C G/B Am F
Inside of me, inside of me
C G/B Am F
Inside of me, inside of me

[Chorus]
C G
I’m only a man in a funny red sheet
Am F
I’m only a man looking for a dream
C G
I’m only a man in a funny red sheet
Am F
It’s not easy ooh hoo hoo

[Outro]
C G Am F C
It’s not easy to be me
