Intro G 

              Em                        C                       G 
She sees them walking in a straight line, that's not really her style 
    D        Em                    C                       G     D 
And they all got the same heartbeat, but hers is falling behind 
Em                         C                G     D 
Nothing in this world could ever bring them down, hmm 
Em                      C                           G 
Yeah, they're invincible, and she's just in the background 
N.C. 
And she says 

Em                    C 
  I wish that I could be like the cool kids 
G                         D 
'Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in 
Em                    C 
  I wish that I could be like the cool kids 
G              D 
 Like the cool kids

             Em                      C                        G 
He sees them talking with a big smile, but they haven't got a clue (Ha, ha) 
      Em                          C                           G 
Yeah, they're living the good life, can't see what he is going through 
Em                         C                                   G      D 
  They're driving fast cars, but they don't know where they're going, hmm 
Em                      C                     G 
They're in the fast lane, living life without knowing 
N.C. 
And he says 

Em                    C 
  I wish that I could be like the cool kids 
G                         D

Em                    C 
  I wish that I could be like the cool kids

Em                         C 
  I thought I wanted to be cool like someone else 
G                         D 
 But ten years later, I'm just a picture on the shelf 
Em              C 
  Memories in a haze, but I keep looking back 
G                D 
 I keep seeing myself 'cause the ceiling's glass 
      D 
After all this time, no, I can't lie 
      D 
I was just another person that was dreamin' 
N.C. 
And they said 

N.C. 
I wish that I could be like the cool kids
