Cool

  Em                 D
Sweet life livin', pools and 
swimming.
  Bm                C
Drinks in bars and boys in cars and
 Em                D
rooftop sitting, skinny dipping,
  Bm                 C
shooting stars with fat cigars 
and...

[Pre-Chorus]
      Em                        D
That weekend up in the islands, they
 stop and stare.
  Bm                            
Flashes filling the silence of a 
 C
Hollywood love affair.
 Em                      D
Waking up in the islands, 'cause I 
saw you there,
Bm
lost and trying to be...

[Chorus]
                      Em
I was just tryna to be cool,
D                          G   C
I was just tryna to be like you.
                      Em
I'm a spark and you're a boom,
D                     G   C
what am I supposed to do?

Em               D              
Mansion debut, love it, do you? 
Bm             C
Absent father pays his daughter,
      Em                        D
and her mama withdrew from the life 
they once knew.
Bm                       C
She had a heart but she sold it off 
for.

[Pre-Chorus]
      Em                        D
That weekend up in the islands, they

[Bridge]
                     Em
When I've got that cigarrete smoke 
and Saint Laurent coat,
    D                          
But nothing is feeling right, I 
   G
drink but I choke,
                     C             
I love but I don't, yeah. I was 
             C
just tryna to be cool.
D                          G   C
I was just tryna to be like you.
