A E7 D7

[Verse 1]
A D7
Don’t have the vision of Spike Lee
A E7
Don’t have the hand of Da Vinci
A D7
Don’t have no wings so man can fly like Michael Jordan
C7 B7 E7
I’m just not that kind of guy

[Verse 2]
A D7
Don’t have the wisdom of Gandhi
A E7
No muscles like Mohamed Ali
A D7
Don’t have the gangster’s soul or the block to most all go
C7 B7 E7
I don’t have no fancy things

[Chorus]
           A D7 E7
I’m just a soul man (listen here baby)
           A D7 E7
I’m no superman (not at all)
 A G# G F#
It’s just me and my dreams, and despite what it seems
          B7 E
It ain’t much but then it’s just enough

[Verse 3]
A D7
Don’t have the charm of Denzel’s smile
A E7
Don’t have the cool of Cary Grant’s style
A D7
Don’t have the special mind, or the genius of Einsteinn
C7 B7 E7
I’m just not that kind of guy

[Verse 4]
A D7
Don’t have the walk of Neil Armstrong
A E7
Don’t have the power of King Kong
A D7
Don’t have Obama’s smart, or the will of Rosa Parks
C7 B7 E7
Nor the courage of Mandela

[Chorus] x2
           A D7 E7
I’m just a soul man (listen here baby)
           A D7 E7
I’m no superman (not at all)
 A G# G F#
It’s just me and my dreams, and despite what it seems
          B7 E
It ain’t much but then it’s just enough

[Bridge]
        Bm F#m
I’d love to be just like one of them
E F#m
     Have something special
Bm F#m
I know that I’ll try the best that I can
         B7 E7 E7
But what should I do in the end?

[Chorus] x2
           A D7 E7
I’m just a soul man (listen here baby)
           A D7 E7
I’m no superman (not at all)
 A G# G F#
It’s just me and my dreams, and despite what it seems
          B7 E
It ain’t much but then it’s just enough
