[Intro]
G C G D G C D
G C
He doesn't fight crime
D
Or wear a cape
G C
He doesn't read minds
D
Or levitate
G C
But every time my world needs saving
D
He's my Superman
G C
Some folks don't believe in heroes
G D
'Cause they haven't met my dad
[Instrumental Bridge]
G C G D
[Verse 2]
G C
He loves his workshop
D
And rock 'n roll
G C
He's got a hot rod
D
And a heart o' gold
G C
And you could say he's a man of few words
D
But he talks a lot within
G C
And even though' I'm a little taller
D
I still look up to him
[Chorus]
C D G Em
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
C D G Em
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
C D G D
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
C D G
My dad's a hero to me
[Instrumental Bridge 2]
G C G D
[Verse 3]
G C
Rust ridden fenders
D
And doors full of dings
G C D
Somehow he can fix about anything
G C
I didn't think he knew how to cry
D
'Til our dog died that year
G C
He doesn't always say I love you
D
But I can hear him loud and clear
[Chorus]
C D G Em
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
C D G Em
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
C D G D
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
C D G
My dad's a hero to me
[Instrumental Bridge 3]
G C G D
[Chorus]
C D G Em
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
C D G Em
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
C D G D
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
C D G
My dad's a hero to me
