Batman Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [G]don't know who he is behind [D]that mask
[G]But we need [B]him,
[E]& w[G]e need him now

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
[B]He's known as Bru[E]ce Wayne by day,
wealthy socialite
(Gotham City, here they
[A]com[F#m]e)[F#][F#m]
But [F#]incog[E]nito in dress,
he fights crime by night
[A](Gotham City, [F#]here they come)
Yeah it's [Bm]Batman & Robin,
Boy [G]Wonder at his side
Hey now, [E]Riddler, Penguin, Joker,
better [A]go & hide
[Sounds of villainous laughter]
We [G]need the Batman

[Verse 3]
[D](Batman)
We need the Bat[A]man[D]
[A](Ba[D#m]tman)
Criminals [F#]are a superstitious, cowardly lot
So my disguise must be able

[Verse 4]
To strike terror into their hearts
[B][D#]
[B]Now as the[E] Bat Signal sweeps across
the midnight sky
(Gotham City,
[A]here they [F#m]come)[F#]
Somewhere in [E]Gotham City it'll find
the Batman's [A]eye
(Gotham City, here [F#]they come)
There's [Bm]a crime wave goin' on,
but [G]not for very long
'Cause the [E]Batman's gonna
teach 'em [A]right from wrong
They [G]call him Batman

[Verse 5]
[D](Batman)
They call him Bat[A]man[D]
[A](Batman)
Did you see that [B]strange [E]car (no[D], why?)
It was shaped like a [A]bat[C]
[Sound of Batmobile passing by]

[Verse 6]
So when you [F]see the Batmobile quickly
pass you [Bb]by
(Gotham[Eb]City, here [Bb]they
[Gm]come)
You know they've [F]heard the
Batphone & the Commissioner's cry
[Bb](Gotham City,
here [Eb]they [Bb]come[G])
Yeah that [Cm]Dynamic Duo's out
[Ab]to prove crime doesn't pay
And from [F]the Batcave our
heroes keep [Bb]evil at bay
We need [Gm]the Bat

[Verse 7]
[Eb]man (Batman)
We need the Bat[Bb]man (Batman)
I must be a creature of the night
[Spoken]:
[Bb]Black, terrible! [C]Um... [Cm]um...[Bb][Db]
[sounds of bat's call & flapping wings]
As if in answer a huge bat flies
in the open win[F]dow![Cdim]
A bat, that's [D]it,
it's [Ab]an om[D]en; I shall beco[Cdim]me a ba[F#dim]t![F]
Thus is born this weird [G]figure of the dark,

[Interlude 1]
this avenger of evil, the Batman!
[E][B]

[Verse 8]
Batman [E]Batman
Batman Bat[B]man
Batman

[Outro 1]
[Sound of Batmobile passing by - Fade out]
