Standard (EADGBE)

She's been living in a basement

 Down by the railroad tracks

Her dreams have all left the station

 The dreams have all turned their backs

So she lies in bed and remembers

 When the moon it hung so high

With a spoon and a needle

She never has to leave the sky

Superman is killing himself tonight

Hollywise

  Hollywise

 I'm sellin' my soul to be in the spotlight

Hollywise

  Hollywise

Hollywise

He's been living with his mama

  Since the market crashed

His wife ran out with the doctor

 When he ran out on cash

So now one hand holds a bottle

 The other cradles a forty-four

Two more shots and it's over

He just couldn't hang on no more

Superman is killing himself tonight

Hollywise

  Hollywise

 I'm sellin' my soul to be in the spotlight

Hollywise

  Hollywise

Hollywise

Superman is killing himself

Superman is killing himself tonight

Superman is killing himself

But Superman won't kill himself tonight
