(G major) (A major) (C major) (G major)
(A major) (C major) (G major)
Verse 1
Sitting (G major)
alone in his rocking chair
With a pistol (A minor) in his hand
(D major) Karl Dane, got nothing left to give (G major)
You see his face at the picture show
In the si (A minor) lent days,
the only life he would know
But by the (D major) middle of April,
he had no reason to live

Verse 2
But when he opened his mouth
Oh, you'd (A minor) prob'ly say the same
In (D major) vention of sound,
and Karl Dane was out of the game (G major)
Give him a job, five dollars a day
Yeah, the studio (A minor) told him that
was all they would pay
And when they (C major) found him dead,
he left himself for no one to claim
(G major)
Verse 3
And it's a modern world
that we (A minor) live in (C major)
And you got no place to go (G major)
It's a modern world that we (A minor) live in (C major)
And it just ain't made for me
(G major)
Verse 4
In the show of the freaks, yeah,
I would probably guess
You'd find her standing (E minor) there with
hair from her (A minor) chin to her chest
And then they shut (D major) it down,
they found it politically incor (G major) rect
So it was on with the high heels
and off with the beard
When she'd (A minor) a good shave,
she didn't look half weird
So now it's (D major) nights on the corners
just to come up with rent
(G major)
Verse 5
And it's a shame the way
Marcel (A minor) would treat her so unkind
She (D major) picked up the pipe to
make it through the day (G major)
Well, you can find her there
Face (A minor) down in the curb
Two (C major) inches of water in
the grave that she lay
(G major)
Verse 6
And it's a modern world
that we (A minor) live in (C major)
And you got no place to go (G major)
It's a modern world that we (A minor) live in (C major)

(G major)
Verse 7
Jesse James, Pat Garrett, Billy the Kid
Ain't no room in (A major) side the world for
all the things that they did (G major)
Yeah, Rudolph (C major) Valentino,
even Cool Hand Luke
Just like a (G major) king, queen or pharaoh,
like a jester or duke
Robert Louis Stevenson,
and Jekyll and Hyde
(A major) Ed Gein, The Unabomber, Bonnie
and Clyde (A minor)
(C major) Randle McMurphy, I think
he flew too high
(G major)
Verse 8
(G major) Miles Davis, Ellington, and Holiday
Even (A major) Dylan's having trouble
(A minor) tryna make it today
Well, it's a shame (C major) to say,
"That's just the way that it goes" (G major)
Gene Kelly tap- dancing,
singing the blues
(A major) Bootlegging whiskey, prohibition of booze
I don't (C major) know what to do,
I just have to learn, I suppose
(G major)
Verse 9
Well, it's a modern world that we
(A minor) live in (A major) (A minor) (A major) (A minor) (A major) (C major)

we (A minor) live in (A major) (A minor) (C major)
And it just ain't made for me
(G major)
