Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Out of the rain I burst in through the front door,

Soaking and bleeding again I hit the floor spinning

Backpack on my back, it's weighing me down

Weighing me down, weighing me down.

I think it's that I don't know kids and they don't know me

 But I know one thing, that I'm safer in my room

 I've got the internet, I meet friends on msn,

Friends' friends, friends' friends, they tell me

I can put stuff in your backpack that'll scare the

Shit out of kids, that chase you in the street

 That'd help me out... That'd help me out

 That'd help me out... That'd help me out

 But after a while I get tired,

They try to get me to study but I've got

Things to do... I've got homework too

 'Cause they don't know my dad

 He's this town through and through

Old school fifty-something balding racist

 And so his mates are too

 But me I'm a modern man!

 Me I'm a modern man!

 I'm a modern man a wo-ooah

 I'm a modern man a wo-ooah

 And I think I'm intelligent

 I think I'm open minded

 And I think I've got a world view

 And there's not many people like me round here I can tell you

 And I think I'm the future

 And I think I'm dead

 if I lose track

 'Cause they don't know my dad

 He's this town through and through

Old school fifty-something balding racist

 And so his mates are too

 But me I'm a modern man!

 Me I'm a modern man!

 I'm a modern man a wo-ooah

 I'm a modern man a wo-ooah

 Yeah me I'm a modern man

 Me I'm a modern man

 I'm a modern man a wo-ooah

 I'm a modern man a wo-oo-oo-aaahhh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh
