Verse 1:
A G
I’ve been reading books of old,
A Bm
the legends and the myths
A G A Bm
Achilles and his gold, Hercules and his gifts
A G A Bm
Spiderman’s control and Batman with his fists
A G A Bm
And clearly I don’t see myself upon that list
Pre-Chorus 1:
A G
She said, where’d you wanna go,
A Bm
how much you wanna risk?
A G
I’m not looking for somebody
A Bm
with some superhuman gifts
A G A Bm
Some superhero, some fairytale bliss
A G A Bm
Just something I can turn to, somebody I can kiss
Chorus 1:
A G
I want something just like this,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
A G
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-oo,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
A G
Oh I want something just like this,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
A G
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-oo,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
A G A Bm A G A Bm
Oh I want something just like this
A G A Bm A G A Bm
I want something just like this
Verse 2:
A G A Bm
I’ve been reading books of old, the legends and the myths
A G A Bm
The testaments they told, the moon and its eclipse
A G A Bm
And Superman unrolls, a suit before he lifts
A G A Bm
But I’m not the kind of person that it fits
Pre-Chorus 2:
A G A Bm
She said, where’d you wanna go, how much you wanna risk?
A G A Bm
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
A G A Bm
Some superhero, some fairytale bliss
A G A Bm
Just something I can turn to, somebody I can miss
Chorus 2:
A G A Bm A G A Bm
I want something just like this
A G A Bm A G A Bm
I want something just like this
A G
Oh I want something just like this,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
A G
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-oo,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
A G
Oh I want something just like this,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
A G
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-oo,
A Bm
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Pre-Chorus 3:
A G A Bm
Where’d you wanna go, how much you wanna risk?
A G A Bm
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
A G A Bm
Some superhero, some fairytale bliss
A G A Bm
Just something I can turn to, somebody I can kiss
A (G)
I want something just like this
