    E  
A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride, Today's Tom Sawyer
           E E  E D  E A  E C  
Mean mean pride.  

E E  
      Though his mind is not for rent,  

E D  
      Don't put him down as arrogant.  

E A  
      His reserve, a quiet defense,  

E C                            C G A  
      Riding out the day's events.  

C    G A    E E  E D  E A   C B A G F# E  
The ri_ver
E F# G A E C B A
  E             F#            G        A  
And what you say about his company  

    E        C           B  A  
Is what you say about society.  

E        F#    G            A  
Catch the mist, catch the myth  

E         C           B        A       E F# G A E C B A B  
Catch the mystery, catch the drift.  

   B  
The world is, the world is,  

A        G         B  
Love and life are deep,  

A             G     A   E  
Maybe as his eyes are wide.  

E  
Today's Tom Sawyer,
He gets high on you, And the space he invades He gets by on you. (Solo) E E E E D E A E C
E E  
      No, his mind is not for rent  

E D  
      To any god or government.  

E A  
      Always hopeful, yet discontent,  

E C                                                        C G A  
     He knows changes aren't permanent,  

C    G      A     E E   E D   E A   C B A G F# E  
But change is.
E F# G A E C B A
  E             F#             G        A  
And what you say about his company  

    E       C                B  A  
Is what you say about society.  

E        F#         G            A  
Catch the witness, catch the wit  

E        C     B             A      E F# G A E C B A B  
Catch the spirit, catch the spit.  

     B  
The world is, the world is,  

A        G         B  
Love and life are deep,  

A             G     A   E  
Maybe as his eyes are wide.  

E  
Exit the warrior,
Today's Tom Sawyer, He gets high on you, And the energy you trade, He gets right on to the friction of the day. E F# E F# E F# E F# E F# E F# E F# E F# E F#...
