INTRO
| C | % | 

C                  G6     G*
   A penny in your pocket,
Am                    Em    C7/B
   A suitcase in your hand,
F                     C/E
   They won't get you very far,
             Dm                   F/G     G6 G*
Now you're a twenty-first century man

C                  G6     G*
    Fly across the city,
Am                Em    C7/B
    Far above the land,
F                   C/E
    You can do most anything,
         Dm                   B   B/A  B/Ab
You're a twenty-first century man

G            G/F         C/E       F          Dm  Am
  Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow,
G           G/F        C/E            F                     Fm
  You still wander the fields of your sorrow - what will it bring?

C                   G6     G*
   One day you're a hero,
Am                       Em    C7/B
   The next day you're a clown,
F                          C/E
   There's nothing that is in between,
             Dm                   F/G     G6 G*
Now you're a twenty-first century man

C                   G6     G*
   You should be so happy,
Am                  Em    C7/B
   You should be so glad,
F                    C/E
   So why are you so lonely,
         Dm                   B   B/A  B/Ab
You're a twenty-first century man

G             G/F              C/E           F          
  You stepped out of a dream believing everything was gone,
G             G/F                         C/E                 F          Fm     
  Return with what you've learned they'll kiss the ground you walk upon.

SOLO
| C | G6 G* | Am | Em C7/B | F | C/E | 

Dm                   F/G     G6 G*
Twenty-first century man


C                        G6                 G*
   Things aren't how you thought they were,
Am                  Em     C7/B
   Nothing have you planned,
F                                 C/E
   So pick up your penny and your suitcase,
             Dm                   B   B/A  B/Ab
You're not a twenty-first century man.

G            G/F         C/E       F          Dm  Am
  Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow,
G           G/F        C/E            F          Fm
  You still wander the fields of your sorrow - tomorrow
