Cool

D     G   G    A

 D                Dsus          
He really liked flannel with bib
Gadd9
 overalls
 D                                 
If you looked in his closet it was 
 A           A7
all that you saw
 D                Dsus          
He'd dress up on Sunday and 
Gadd9
thought he looked neat
 Bm                    A   
In a green leisure suit with 
      D/F#         G
wingtips on his feet

D             Dsus         Gadd9
I hated the music he played in the 
car
 D                              
It was hard to believe he called 
   A           A7
those people stars
  D                      Dsus      
They sang through their noses like 
Gadd9
they all had colds
  Bm                       A    
I guess it's hard to be cool when 
   D/F#            G
your forty years old

[Chorus]
 Bm                     G
I was fifteen and real hip with long
 hair

  D                     A       
I'd ask my mama why's is daddy so 
D/F#
square
  Bm                        G
I could't believe all that he didn't
 know
 Bm                         A     
I guess it's hard to be cool when 
    D/F#           G
your forty years old

D                   Dsus         
The night I turned twenty she 
          Gadd9
came with the news
D                                
Scared half to death and didn't 
A           A7
know what to do
 D               Dsus       Gadd9
I told her I'm sorry, but it's not 
too late
 Bm                       A        
There's a doctor I've heard of that
D/F#       G
 fixes mistakes

 D                 Dsus            
I thought he was working and I was 
Gadd9
alone
 D                                 
But he was standing behind me when 
   A           A7
I hung up the phone
 D                 Dsus           
He said Son there's a few things 
       Gadd9
you don't know about
 Bm                     A     
If you listen real close we can 
   D/F#         G
figure this out

[Chorus]
 Bm                           G
Cause I was eighteen and as wild as 
they came
 D                              A 
When one night a young girl told 
           D/F#
me the same thing
 Bm                         G
You would't be here if she hadn't 
said no
             Bm              A    
You see, It's hard to be cool when
       D/F#        G
 your twenty years old

 D                  Dsus      
These days I like flannel and old 
Gadd9
Levi jeans
 D                             A  
And I look at my young boy who 
         A7
just turned fifteen
 D                 D/F#        
I know what he's thinking but it's 
Gadd9
ok you know
          Bm                 A    
You see, It's hard to be cool when
                    G
 your fifteen years old
