D/E Em
I know when to go out
D/C C
And when to stay in
Dsus4 D/E Em
Get things done
C
I catch a paper boy
G
But things don't really change
Am
I'm standing in the wind
E7 F
But I never wave bye-bye
C G Em7 Em
But I try, I try
C
There's no sign of life
G
It's just the power to charm
Am
I'm lying in the rain
E7 F
But I never wave bye-bye
C G
But I try, I try
Em7 Em
Never gonna fall for
C
Modern love - walks beside me
D
Modern love - walks on by
Em F
Modern love - gets me to the church on time
C
Church on time - terrifies me

Church on time - makes me party
Em F
Church on time - puts my trust in God and man

God and man - don't believe in modern love

Never gonna fall for
