D He's a rebel and a runner, He's a signal turning green He's a restless young romantic, Wants to run the big machine F He's got a problem with his poisons But you know he'll find a cure He's cleaning up his systems D To keep his nature pure F A# Gm Learning to match the beat of the Old World Man F A# Gm Learning to catch the heat of the Third World Man Chorus: D He's got to make his own mistakes And learn to mend the mess he makes F A# He's old enough to know what's right Gm But young enough not to choose it F A# He's noble enough to win the world Gm But weak enough to lose it D C G/B D He's a New World Man He's a radio receiver Tuned to factories and farms He's a writer and a ranger And a young boy bearing arms He's got a problem with his power With weapons on patrol He's got to walk a fine line And keep his self-control Trying to save the day for the Old World Man Trying to pave the way for the Third World Man Chorus: He's not concerned with yesterday He knows constant change is here today He's noble enough to know what's right But weak enough not to choose it He's wise enough to win the world But fool enough to lose it He's a New World Man. Learning to match the beat of the Old World Man He's learning to catch the heat of the Third World Man He's a New World Man He's a New World Man You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA# C D F Gm G B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
