(intro 2x) A F#m E  

A     F#m                E      A 
 I'll wait my turn I'm a modern man 
         F#m                      E    A 
 And the people behind they don't understand 
          F#m        E 
 Makes me feel like 
A         F#m        E 
 Makes me feel like 

A      F#m               E      A 
  So I wait in line I'm a modern man 
         F#m                      E    A 
 And the people behind they can't understand 
          F#m        E 
 Makes me feel like 
A               F#m         E 
 Something don't feel right 

( A F#m E A ) 
( F#m E A ) 

       F#m                         E      A 
Like a record that's skippin'I'm a modern man 
        F#m                       E      A 
And the clock keeps tickin' I'm a modern man 
          F#m        E 
 Makes me feel light 
A         F#m        E 
 Makes me feel right

 In my dream I was almost there 
           A 
 Then they pulled me aside and said you're going nowhere 
 D 
 They say we are the chosen few 
           E                              A 
 But we're wasted, and that's we're still waitin' 

 F#m                  E      A 
 On a number from the modern man 
 F#m                              E    A 
 Maybe when you're older you will understand 
               F#m        E 
 Why you don't feel right 
A                       F#m        E 
 Why you can't sleep at night now

(Chorus) 
A/C#  B5        A5             Ab5        F#m 
In a line for a number but you don't understand 
E       D     A/C# 
Like a  moder man 
     B5        A5              Ab5        F#m 
In a line for a number but you don't understand 
E       D     A/C# 
Like a  moder man 

A     F#m               E   A 
 Oh I had a dream I was dreamin' 
      F#m                       E   A 
 And I feel like I'm losing the feelin' 
          F#m        E 
 Makes me feel like 
A                F#m         E 
 Something don't feel right 

A  F#m                   E      A 
 I waste a number of the modern man 
       F#m                     E      A 
 Gonna break the mirror of the modern man 
          F#m        E 
 Makes me feel like 
A         F#m        E 
 Makes me feel like
