Capo on 4th, dude.

I used to be a geek every day of the week
D G
And something stupid came out every time that I'd speak
D G
Every saturday night I'd have no immediate plans
D G
I'd hang out with mom and dad playing board games again
Em A
I was bored like a fool
I wish I was cool
(Continue D, G,patern)
Well I was useless in class so I tried out for sports
Where the jocks got a kick out of yanking my shorts
Stealing my towel when my shower was done
I'd walk through the locker room I couldn't find one
Em A
I had to streak through the school
I wish I was cool
Em A
Mama dear mom I think my shorts are coming down
I held on tight to my books kept my mouth shut in class
In my hand me down clothes even the teachers would laugh
I'd pray to the clock I'd eat lunch alone
And we haven't even gotten to the bus ride home
No teachers no rules
I wish I was cool
You see we lived in the house with too many kids
Too many pets and not much food in the fridge
The kids on the bus called it the house of the hicks
'cause there's too many cars on the lawn to be fixed
But my dad lost his tools
I wish I was cool
Mama dear mom your broken boy is coming home
(Acoustic) G7
So what is the moral of the story you say
(Acoustic) G6
The king of the jocks turned out to be gay
D G
And all the little cool kids stayed in their small town
Where some used to be nerd can boss them around
Em
It's our turn to be cruel
It's our turn to be cruel
A
I wish I was cool
D G
Cool yeah yeah
D G
Cool yeah yeah
