(with Above Riff):

          Em7
Very superstitious, writing's on the wall.
Very superstitious, ladder's 'bout to fall.
Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass.
Seven years of bad luck; the good things in your past.


[Chorus]

           B7       C9b5
When you believe in things,
         B7         Bb9b5           A9sus4
That you don't understand, then you suffer.
B7#5                    Em7
 Superstition ain't the way.

[Verse 2]
(with Verse Riff)

          Em7
Very superstitious, wash your face and hands.
Rid me of the problem, do all that you can.
Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong.
You don't wanna save me, sad is my song.


[Chorus 2]

           B7       C9b5
When you believe in things,
         B7         Bb9b5           A9sus4
That you don't understand, then you suffer.
B7#5                    Em7

[Verse 3]
(with Verse Riff)

          Em7
Very superstitious, nothin' more to say.
Very superstitious; the Devil's on his way.
Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass,
Seven years of bad luck; the good things in your past.
