[Verse 1]
G
I never got a spider bite.
   Dsus2                            C
No super serum's running through my veins.
        G
I can’t build a suit of armor,
      Dsus2                                 C
and I don't think I can move things with my brain.

              G
I don’t think Mary Jane would fall for me.
 Dsus2                           C
Another average guy is all she’d see.
    G
But I won’t let it get me down.
    Dsus2                     C
The greatest hero I can be is me.

[Chorus]
C              G              D               Em
I ain’t got no powers, but it won’t get in my way.
  C                G                  D                 Em
I don’t need super strength or spider sense to save the day.
C              G
I know I’ll be okay.
    B7            Em
Whatever comes my way,
  D        C     D
I will still say,
        C   G       D   Em
“Excelsior” “Excelsior”
        C   G       D   Em
“Excelsior” “Excelsior”

[Verse 2]
G
Maybe there’s no supervillain.
Dsus2                      C
Maybe there’s no galaxy at stake.
    G                                 Dsus2
But sometimes life can kick me to the ground.
                               C
Some days it’s more than I can take.

  (switch to picking/strumming chords multiple times)
          G
But, I’ll raise my weapon, learn my lesson,
Dsus2                            C
stumble now and then, and find my way.
     G
I’ll fight the fight, learn wrong from right,
     Dsus2                  C
find ways to be a hero every day.

[Chorus]
C              G              D               Em
I ain’t got no powers, but it won’t get in my way.
  C                G                  D                 Em
I don’t need super strength or spider sense to save the day.
C              G
I know I’ll be okay.
    B7            Em
Whatever comes my way,
  D        C     D
I will still say,

Cadd9           G              Dsus4           Em7
I ain’t got no powers, but it won’t get in my way.
  Cadd9            G                  Dsus4             Em7
I don’t need super strength or spider sense to save the day.
Cadd9          G
I know I’ll be okay.
    B7           Em7
Whatever comes my way,

  Dsus4      Cadd9     Dsus4
I will still say,
        C   G       D   Em
“Excelsior” “Excelsior”
        C   G       D   Em
“Excelsior” “Excelsior”
