Modern Girl

 E
he wakes and says hello
B
turns on the breakfast show
 F#                        B
she fixes coffee while he takes a 
shower
Dbm                    F#m
"hey, that was great," he said
  B
"I wish we could stay in bed
 Dbm         F#m           G     
but I got to be at work in less 
        A
than an hour,"
  Bm
she manages a smile
      E
as he walks out the door
        Bm
she's a modern girl
           A
who's been through this movie before

Chorus
          G
she don't build her world
           D
'round no single man
         Em
but she's getting by
      D
doing what she can
       G
she is free to be
        D
what she wants to be
        Em
all she wants to be
      D
is a modern girl

 Dbm              F#
it looks like rain again
   B
she takes the train again
  F#m
she's on her way again
        B
through London town
           F#
where she peels a tangerine
              B
flicks through a magazine
 F#                            G
until it's time to leave her dreams
       A
on the underground
    Bm
she walks to the office
  Em
like everyone else
   Bm
an independent lady
       A
taking care of herself


          G
she don't build her world
          D
'round no single man
          Em
but she's getting by
         D
doing what she can
        G
she is free to be
         D
what she wants to be
         Em
all she wants to be
      D
is a modern girl

      G          F#           Em
she's been dreaming about it all day
 long
    G            F#
As soon as she's home
    Em             Bm
it's him on the telephone

he asks her to dinner
    E
she says: "I'm not free
 Bm
tonight I'm gonna stay at home
    A
and watch my t.v.
