Guitar Tuned Whole Step down from Standard - no capo
EHe's a rebel and a runner, He's a signal turning green
He's a restless young romantic, Wants to run the big machine
Gadd9He's got a problem with his poisons
But you know he'll find a cure
He's cleaning up his systems
To keep his nature Epure
GLearning to match the Cbeat of the Old World AmMan
GLearning to catch the Cheat of the Third World AmMan
EHe's got to make his own mistakes
And learn to mend the mess he makes
GHe's old enough to Cknow what's right
But Amyoung enough not to choose it
GHe's noble enough to Cwin the world
But Amweak enough to lose it
EHe's a New World Man...Dsus2  A/C#  E  
EHe's a radio receiver
Tuned to factories and farms
He's a writer and a ranger
And a young boy bearing arms
Gadd9He's got a problem with his power
With weapons on patrol
He's got to walk a fine line
And keep his self-cEontrol
GTrying to save the dCay for the Old World MAman
GTrying to pave the wCay for the Third World AmMan
EHe's not concerned with yesterday
He knows constant change is here today
GHe's noble enough to kCnow what's right
But Amweak enough not to choose it
He's Gwise enough to Cmwin the world
But Amfool enough to lose it
He's Ea New World Man...
