Selection chords: Ethan Cooper

 C         G
A penny in your pocket,
 Am          Em
A suitcase in your hand,
F            C
They wonʼt get you very far,
         Dm             G
Now youʼre a twenty-first century man.

C         G
Fly across the city,
Am        Em
Far above the land,
F          C
You can do most anything,
      Dm             G
Youʼre a twenty-first century man.

G       F       C       F    F C
Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow,
G      F       C         F
You still wander the fields of your sorrow.

One day youʼre a hero,
The next day youʼre a clown,
Thereʼs nothing that is in between,
Now youʼre a twenty-first century man.

You should be so happy,
You should be so glad,
So why are you so lonely,
Youʼre a twenty-first century man.

You stepped out of a dream believing everything was gone,
Return with what youʼve learned theyʼll
kiss the ground you walk upon.

Things arenʼt how you thought they were,
Nothing have you planned,
So pick up your penny and your suitcase,
Youʼre not a twenty-first century man.

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