Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I'm[Em] a su[G]pe[Em]rstar[G]
in a [Em]living room
[G]I'm a superstar in a [C#dim]bed
[Em]And I [Baug]own the [Cm]greatest mind
[Baug]that the world h[B]as ever kn[Bm]own
When she [Am]tells me what
I'm thinking in [C]my [F]head
[Bb]And I can'[G]t believe that I need [Em]a love
When I'm [G]obviously much
too high [C#dim]and fine
And yet [Cm]every now and then,
[Baug]I suspect within[B] mysel[Bm]f
She's put [Am]in me everything
[C]I thought was m[F]ine
[Bb]I'm the [Eb]man behind the woman
who's held [Dm]cap tive by the man
[Ab]She's so far within me,
if [Gm]she left I wouldn't stand
Suddenly [Dm]stumble,
probably [Cm]crumble[G][Em]
[G][Bm][G][Em]
I have [G]a noble voice when I [Em]sing to her
But as [G]I recall, she often sings a[C#dim]long
And [Cm]it's just occurred to me,
when she [B]screams a little bit
[Bm]It's to warn me of[Am] the route
to some[C]where [F]wrong
[Bb]I'm the man [Eb]behind the woman,
but [Dm]she makes me think reverse
[Bb]Build[Ab]s me while I bind her,
I get [Gm]strong while she gets [Dm]worse[Cm]
I'm the [Eb]man behind the woman
and I'm [Dm]leaning on her love
[Bb]I don't want her[Ab] underneath
my thum[Gm]b
but miles above
If I un[Dm]tie the knot,
I might get the [Cm]sign[G][Em][G][Em][G][Gm][C]
[Ab][G]
