Superman


INTRO (played over the last E7):

G -------
D -0-h-2-
A -------
E -------

VERSE:

   E    A    E    E7

G ----------------------------
D -----------2-2--2-0---------
A ------0-0-----------2-0-----
E -0-0--------------------3-0-

This is repeated over and over.

CHORUS:

E       A

G -------------------------
D -------------------------
A ---------0-0-0-0---------
E -0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0-

This is repeated, too.

BREAK:

G -------------------------
D -----------------0-0-----
A ---------------------0-0-
E -0-0-3-4-0-0-3-4---------

This is repeated 3 times.

OUTRO:

G -----------
D -0-0-------
A -----0-0---
E ---------0-

NB: It should also be pointed out that the bass riffs played during the 
"break" and the one played over the E7 chord, are the basis for every 
single pre-1960 rock-'n'-roll song. Well, not quite. But they sound like 
they should be.
