Chords

[Intro] D G [Verse]
D
We got style and we got grace,

                              G
We run wild and never dance alone.

D
In this town she's fucking famous,

                                G
But this town will never be her home
[Pre-Chorus]
A
The sun sets on a promise kept,

G
And I try but I don't need...
[Chorus]
D
This modern love, this modern love

             G
Oh it always lets me down

D
This modern love, this modern love

             G
Oh it always lets me down
[Interlude] D G [Verse 2]
D
The popularity trap strikes again

                                        G
You don't need these fools cause you're encroyable
(Which is French for incredible)
D
We found solace at the star and garter

                                   G
No malice, I can feel you coming alive
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Ignore the warning signs 

G
and we try but I don't need this...
[Chorus]
D
This modern love, this modern love

             G
Oh it always lets me down

D
This modern love, this modern love

             G
Oh it always lets me down
[Bridge]
D
A bare mattress,

               E  B
A lockless door, two Whittington hearts on pique assiette floor

G
Give me back those awkward exchanges,

               D
the fumbles on bathtubs, when we were just strangers.

D                              E         B          
We talk about your graduation and the realization that we might not be together forever and ever. 

G         D
Amen

D                       E  B
Wide eyed and up all night, 

                                        G                          D
this could be good but I don't want to shy away I hear them say 'romance is dead' and I don't need this...
[Chorus]
D
This modern love, this modern love

             G
Oh it always lets me down

D
This modern love, this modern love

             G
Oh it always lets me down
[Outro] A G D G
