[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
