[Intro] C G C G D C/E D/F# G [Verse]
Am7  G/B  C      G  C        G
             Tarzan wasn't a ladies' man

C          G              C            G         Em
 He'd just come along and scoop 'em up under his arm

     D     Em         D          Am      D
Like that, quick as a cat in the jungle

C      G         C           G
 Clark Kent, now there was a real gent

C         G             C        G    
 He would not be caught sittin' around in no

Em     D     Em         D         Am       D
Junglescape, dumb as an ape doing nothing
[Chorus]
C               D
 Superman never made any money

    G          Am7   G/B  C
For saving the world from Solomon Grundy

G               C             G                C
  And sometimes I despair the world will never see

        D
Another man like him
[Verse]
C    G    C          G
 Hey Bob, Supe had a straight job

C     G                    C                   G
 Even though he could have smashed through any bank

        Em    D       Em         D                Am         D
In the United States, he had the strength, but he would not

C      G        C           G
 Folks said his family were all dead

C       G            C            G
 Planet crumbled but Superman, he forced himself

   Em    D      Em      D             Am      D
To carry on, forget Krypton, and keep going
[Chorus]
C               D
 Superman never made any money

    G          Am7   G/B  C
For saving the world from Solomon Grundy

G               C             G                C
  And sometimes I despair the world will never see

        D
Another man like him
[Bridge]
Em  D       Em          D          C                 G  D
 Tarzan was king of the jungle and Lord over all the a -apes

Em   D        Em     D              C     G       C     G        D
 But he could hardly string together four words: "I Tarzan, You  Jane."
[Verse]
C    G          C        G
 Sometimes when Supe was stopping crimes

C     G               C               G                 Em
 I'll bet that he was tempted to just quit and turn his back

   D    Em      D          Am     D
On man, join Tarzan in the forest

C    G  C             G     C        G
 But he stayed in the city,  kept on changing clothes

   C         G                    Em       D
In dirty old phonebooths till his work was through

    Em         D         Am        D
And nothing to do but go on home
[Chorus]
C               D
 Superman never made any money

    G          Am7   G/B  C
For saving the world from Solomon Grundy

    G           C             G                C
And   sometimes I despair the world will never see

        D
Another man like him

Em               C             Em               C
   And sometimes I despair the world will never see

        D
Another man like him
