[Intro]
C G C Cadd9 C
G F#7
Here I sit a nobody with no-one,
G F#7
Bein' me ain't really all that fun.
G
Leavin' her wasn't very smart,
Admittin' I was wrong wouldn't be so hard.
C
If it was cool to be a fool,
C7
I'd be the hippest guy around.
F7
If a heartache made you famous,
I'd be known from town to town.
C
If tears were made of pennies,
D
And a cold beer brought her back.
G Ab7
My bank account and self esteem,
G
Would both be in the black.
C E7
If some Hollywood producer made a movie that was sad,
F Ab
About some guy who lost the best thing he ever had...
Dm7 Dm7add9 Dm7
Hey, I could be a star,
G Cadd9 C
If it was cool to be a fool.
G F#7
But we all know the way it really is,
G F#7
You don't get recognized for doin' things like this.
G
You spend a lotta time feelin' sorry for yourself,
It doesn't really mean that much to anybody else.
C
If it was cool to be a fool,
C7
I'd be the hippest guy around.
F7
If a heartache made you famous,
I'd be known from town to town.
C
If tears were made of pennies,
D
And a cold beer brought her back.
G Ab7
My bank account and self esteem,
G
Would both be in the black.
C E7
If some Hollywood producer made a movie that was sad,
F Ab
About some guy who lost the best thing he ever had...

Hey, I could be a star,
G C7
If it was cool to be a fool.
