Black Superman (CHORDS) by Jude

~D       ~G       ~Em              ~A              
Another day has passed

~D       ~G                ~Em                      ~A
In this love affair that we swear now will never last

~D       ~G        ~Em              ~A
Another night is here

~D               ~G                   ~Em                  ~A
And you will kiss me darkly, I will hold you close my dear

~D                 ~G             ~Em              ~A
But how many dreams can I

~D       ~G                       ~Em                      ~A
Unravel in the morning before I have to face you

~D        ~G               ~Em                      ~A
How many seams can I

~D       ~G                       ~Em                      ~A
Destroy by tearing off your underwear as if I chase you


[Chorus]~
~G               ~A                 ~G                   ~A       ~G      
When all my life, I have heard you should only be a bird

~G               ~A               ~G                       ~A
Now you’re more than I deserve so I’ll be leaving

~G               ~A               ~B7
And no black Superman is gonna come and save me


~D | ~G | ~Em | ~A
~D | ~G | ~Em | ~A


~D                       ~G               ~Em              ~A
Here comes Hot  Johnny again

~D                       ~G                       ~Em              ~A
That boy could  ride the lightning and then go home to eat again

~D         ~G                       ~Em              ~A
He’s everything I’ll never be

~D               ~G                 ~Em                      ~A
He’s got the feathered hair and a lot of things the ladies see

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A
Got him an albatross love

~D                 ~G            ~Em                      ~A
She’s wraps those wings around you ten feet long of doubted love

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A
And holdin’ on so God damned tight

~D               ~G            ~Em                      ~A
She makes a man make plans she makes him fly away at night


[Chorus]~
~G          ~A                   ~G                      ~A               ~G      
And all my life, I have heard    you should only be a bird

~G               ~A               ~G                 ~A
Now you’re more than I deserve so I’ll be leaving

~G               ~A               ~B7
And no black Superman is gonna come and save me


[Musical Interlude]~
~D | ~G | ~Em | ~A
~D | ~G | ~Em | ~A
~D | ~G | ~Em | ~A
~D | ~G | ~Em | ~A


~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
How many teardrops can I

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
Pretend to shed on each occasion that a man’s supposed to


~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
How many innocent die

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
Before we both admit we never care unless we’re close to

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
How many wishes are left

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
Before we both admit it isn’t getting better

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
How many dishes are left

~D               ~G               ~Em              ~A              
Before you call it quits and cease to be the willing wedder


[Chorus]~
~G               ~A                 ~G                   ~A               ~G      
When all my life, I have heard you should only be a bird

~G               ~A               ~G                       ~A
Now you’re more than I deserve so I’ll be leaving

~G               ~A               ~B7                              ~G
And no black Superman is gonna come and save me this time…

~G               ~A            ~G                   ~A       ~G      
All my life, I have heard you should only be a bird

~G               ~A               ~G                       ~A
Now you’re more than I deserve so I’ll be leaving

~G               ~A               ~B7
And no black Superman is gonna come and save me
