GB7CD She leans by the pool and she dares you to stare her down GB7CD Her pulse never races and her feet never leave the ground CD Her teeth are shiny, they're so manicured CD She looks so distant, so self-assured CD She'll take you home tonight, you'd better be alright G She's modern woman
GB7CD You'll never see the wind blow the style right out of her hair GB7CD She's cool as a snake and some say it doesn't end there CD She's got a brand new hat, up-to-date shoes CD Latest fashion, modern point of view CD She never sits still, 'till she's over the hill G Modern woman
B7C Oh, you'll never see her laugh, you'll never see her fret nor frown B7CD But the wheels of her mind go around and around and around, and around
Oh she's free as a bird and she goes wherever she please She'll take you along if you'll just get up off your knees She's got no strings, she likes it that way No little babies crying all day She doesn't need the fuss, it's so obvious She's modern woman
Well these modern woman, they're all the same They just want your body they don't want your brain She'll bid you adieu when she's had enough of you Modern woman
She looks so demure, you feel so insecure Modern woman She's cool as ice, she never looks twice Modern woman She never sits still, 'till she's over the hill Modern woman
