Modern Times

Am       D               G
I don't know what age it is
                C
Better hole up inside
Am         D
I don't belong
                  G C9
In these modern times

G C9
Escape the past
G C9
Dream of another
 C             G
Call all the guards
       D              G C9
Looks like we got a runner
G C9
Kick off the dogs
G C9
Corporate invasion
     C           G       D        G C9
You can't gentrify the soul of a nation

    Am            D
And I swear the buildings
         G       C
Moved to me overnight
Am         D
I don't belong
                 G C9
In these modern times

G C9
Can't find the Lord
G C9
He's shaking hands with Big Brother
 C            G            D            G C9
Can't hide forever in the womb of your mother
G C9
All aboard
G C9
It's a permanent vacation
 C            G             D          G C9
Bathe in the water of your mind's mutilation

    Am           D
And I swear the buildings
        G       C
Move to me overnight
 Am          D               G
I'm holding on to days gone by
     C
Gone by
           D
I don't belong
              G C9
In the modern time

( G  C9 )

G                                      C9
The oaks and the sage in the fields of gold
                                D
Birds and bees ain't never been told
                                G        D
The end is near as the morning light  oh oh
G                                        C9
In the maze in the mold I can't see the light
                                          D
It fades like the days and the fire in my eyes
                               G
Destiny laughs in the face of denial
        C9       D
As the world spins by
               G C9
In the modern time

G C9
Hey!     Hey!
