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

He loves his workshop and rock 'n roll
He's got a hot rod and a heart of gold
And you could say he's a man of few words
But he talks a lot within
And even though' I'm a little taller
I still look up to him

Chorus:
G#             A#          D#        Cm
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
G#                A#          D#           Cm
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
G#               A#         D#              A#
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
   G#      A#      D#
My dad's a hero to me

Rust ridden fenders and doors full of dings
Somehow he can fix about anything
I didn't think he knew how to cry
Till our dog died that year
He doesn't always say I love you
But I can hear him loud and clear

Chorus

He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see
My dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me
