boygenius - Cool About It

Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse]
C/G F/C
I met you at the dive bar to go shoot some pool
C/B Am7 Am Gadd9 G
Owned me in front of the cowboys with the neck tattoos
C/G F/C
Ask you easy questions about work and school
Dm
I’m trying to be cool about it
G Am
Feeling like an absolute fool about it
F/C Dm
Wishing you were kind enough to be cruel about it
G Dm
Telling myself I can always do without it
F/C Dm
Even though I know it isn’t true

C/G F/C
I can prepare for absolution if you’d only ask
C/B Am7 Am Gadd9 G
So I take some offense when you say “no regrets”
C/G F/C
I remember it’s impossible to pass your test
Dm
But I’m trying to forget about it
G Am
Feeling like I’m breaking a sweat about it
F/C Dm
Wishing you’d kindly get out of my hеad about it
G Am
Telling myself one day I’ll forgеt about it
F/C Dm
Knowing that it probably isn’t true

C/G F/G
Once I took your medication to know what it’s like
C/B Am7 Am Gadd9 G
And now I have to act like I can’t read your mind
C/G F/C
I ask you how you’re doing and I let you lie
Dm
We don’t have to talk about it
G Am
I can walk you home and practice method acting
F/C Dm
I’ll pretend being with you doesn’t feel like drowning
G Am
Tell the mirror it’s nice to see how good you’re doing
F/C Dm
Even though we know it isn’t true
