	        This song features two guitars, the one you hear first is in normal tuning, and the louder  
acoustic that comes in as shown below is in drop D tuning. I'm pretty terrible at working out  
lyrics, but these would be pretty close. 
 
 
Guitar One only... 
 
    Am                         D 
The road falls gently from the modern gun 
       Am                            D 
theres motion in the mystery of your face 
  Am                        D 
a lion crawls slowly in the modern sun 
       Am                            D 
theres motion in the history of your grace 
 
Second guitar comes in, playing power chords with drop D tuning. 
NB: The power chords actually go more like Am G Am and then to D. Very easy to hear if you play
along. 
 
       Am 
in the modern station  
       D 
in the modern stone 
       Am              D 
in the modern talk you hate 
       Am 
in the modern planet 
       D 
in the modern sun 
       Am              D 
in the modern bowl you shave

Am D the sun crawls slowly in the eastern sky Am D theres motion in the mystery of your fate Am D the clouds fall softly once the kingdom drowns Am D theres motion in the history of your state Am and your sisters curses D waking up Am G and the modern drugs you take
C A7/sus4/6 it's all in a file Am F they pull you over D Am it's really over now they F A7/sus4/6 think they know your name Am C it's falling apart F D from everyone Am G F G she dreams into my head she dreams into my head
Guitar Two: second guitar fill
Play this riff repeatedly under trumpet solo, then finish on an open D power chord.

the sun falls gently from the modern gun theres motion in the mystery of your hate a line bends slowly when the hero runs the middle of the east is in flames in the modern power in the modern thumb in the modern fool you shape in the final painting, hanging up in the modern war you wage CHORUS: repeat as above If you have any questions or comments feel free to email me.
