[Start]

[Intro]

[Verse]
D                        
■ I stand up for my pride
        D                        
I don't wanna be just like anyone
   D                       
In this world I cannot hide
  D                            
I must finish what I have begun
               G     
That's the way I play
   E A          D  
In ■ the modern day
               G   
'cause I wanna stay
E A               D  
■ ■ In the modern day
    D                   
Got a picture in my mind
   D                      
Of the way that I wanna be
   D                    
So I search until I find
    D                 
The power inside of me
             G    
It's another phase
E A               D  
■ ■ Of the modern day


[Chorus]
A                       D   
■ Gotta face up to this life
A                         D    
Can't let it get the best of me
A             D        
■ So I make a sacrifice
A                             D 
■ If that's the way it has to be


[Verse]
    D                         
I'm doin' what I feel is right
D                           
I'm ready if I need to fight
              G  
In the modern way
E A               D  
■ ■ In the modern day

Can't let it get the best of me
A                 D        
■ And if I make a sacrifice
A                          D 
■ That's the way it has to be


[Verse]
     D                   
Like a motor in overdrive
  D                         
I feel good and I feel alive
      D                       
I got no need to beg or borrow
      D                   
Got a shortcut to tomorrow

And I'm on my way
Em A             D  
■  To the modern day
             G  
Got a lot to say
Em7 A               D  
■   ■ In the modern day
                 G   
'cause I need to stay
Em Em7 A             D  
■  ■   In the modern day

In the modern day ■   ■
