Capo on 2nd fret

C5          A5
Out of the rain I burst in through the front door,
C5          A5
Soaking and bleeding again I hit the floor spinning
G5
Backpack on my back, it's weighing me down
G5
Weighing me down, weighing me down.

C5 A5
C5 A5

C5                A5
I think it's that I don't know kids and they don't know me
      C5      A5
But I know one thing, that I'm safer in my room
             G5
I've got the internet, I meet friends on msn,
G5
Friends' friends, friends' friends, they tell me
C5         A5
I can put stuff in your backpack that'll scare the
C5           A5
Shit out of kids, that chase you in the street
       G5                     F5
That'd help me out... That'd help me out
       A5                    F5
That'd help me out... That'd help me out

    C5
But after a while I get tired,
G5 C5
They try to get me to study but I've got
A5                       G5
Things to do... I've got homework too

       E5
'Cause they don't know my dad
      F5                      C5
He's this town through and through
E5
Old school fifty-something balding racist
    F5                C5
And so his mates are too
                    G5       A5 E5
But me I'm a modern man!
                G5           A5 E5
Me I'm a modern man!
      F5                  A5
I'm a modern man a wo-ooah
      F5                  A5
I'm a modern man a wo-ooah

                  G5
And I think I'm intelligent
                 A5
I think I'm open minded
                       G5
And I think I've got a world view
                                 A5
And there's not many people like me round here I can tell you
                     G5             A5
And I think I'm the future
                G5
And I think I'm dead
          A5
if I lose track

       E5
'Cause they don't know my dad
      F5                      C5
He's this town through and through
E5
Old school fifty-something balding racist
    F5                C5
And so his mates are too
                    G5       A5 E5
But me I'm a modern man!
                G5           A5 E5
Me I'm a modern man!
      F5                  A5
I'm a modern man a wo-ooah
      F5                  A5
I'm a modern man a wo-ooah
                     G5
Yeah me I'm a modern man
                G5
Me I'm a modern man
      F5               A5
I'm a modern man a wo-ooah
      F5               A5                               G5
