Verse
C G6 G *
A penny in your pocket,
A suitcase in your hand,
They won't get you very far,
Dm F/G G6 G *
Now you're a twenty-first century man
Verse
C G6 G *
Fly across the city,
Far above the land,
You can do most anything,
You're a twenty-first century man
Middle 8
Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow,
You still wander the fields of your sorrow - what will it bring?
Verse
C G6 G *
One day you're a hero,
The next day you're a clown,
There's nothing that is in between,
Dm F/G G6 G *
Now you're a twenty-first century man
Verse
C G6 G *
You should be so happy,
You should be so glad,
So why are you so lonely,
You're a twenty-first century man
[Middle 8] (variation)
You stepped out of a dream believing everything was gone,
Return with what you've learned they'll kiss the ground you walk upon.

Twenty-first century man
Verse
C G6 G *
Things aren't how you thought they were,
Nothing have you planned,
So pick up your penny and your suitcase,
You're not a twenty-first century man.

Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow,
You still wander the fields of your sorrow - tomorrow
