Not All Heroes Wear Capes Chords

(ver. 4)
Owl City
[Verse 1]
| D | G | G2 | A | D | G | G2 | A2 |

D    G
  He doesn't fight crime
G2          A
  Or wear a cape
D    G
  He doesn't read minds
G2        A
  Or levitate
D                G                     G2
  But every time my world needs saving
A
  He's my Superman
D            G
  Some folks don't believe in heroes
G2      A
  'Cause they haven't met my dad

[Instrumental Bridge 1]
| D | G | G2 | A | D | G | G2 | A2|

[Verse 2]
D         G
  He loves his workshop
G2             A
  And rock 'n roll
D      G
  He's got a hot rod
G2                A
  And a heart o' gold
D                  G                        G2
  And you could say he's a man of few words
A
 But he talks a lot within
D                   G                  G2
  And even though' I'm a little taller
A
 I still look up to him

[Chorus]
G              A              D/Gb     Bm
  He built me a house in the arms of a tree
G                A               D/Gb        Bm
  He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
G                  A        F#/D   E/D      D   Db/D
  When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
Cb/D        Db/D
 My dad's a hero to me

[Instrumental Bridge 2]
| D | G | G2 | A | D | G | G2 | A2|

[Verse 3]
D      G
  Rust ridden fenders
    G2              A
  And doors full of dings
D        G            G2        A
  Somehow he can fix about anything
D                G                 G2
  I didn't think he knew how to cry
A
  'Til our dog died that year
D               G                 G2
  He doesn't always say I love you
      A
But I can hear him loud and clear

[Chorus]
G              A              D/Gb     Bm
  He built me a house in the arms of a tree
G                A               D/Gb        Bm
  He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
G                  A        F#/D   E/D      D   Db/D
  When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
Cb/D        Db/D
 My dad's a hero to me

[Instrumental Bridge 3]
| D | G | G2 | A | D | G | G2 | A| D | G | G2 | A | D | G | G2 | A|

[Chorus]
G              A              D/Gb     Bm
  He built me a house in the arms of a tree
G                A               D/Gb        Bm
  He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
G                  A        F#/D   E/D      D   Db/D
  When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
Cb/D        Db/D
 My dad's a hero to me

[Outro]
