  C          Am 
I want to be cool 
  C          Am            C          Am 
I want everyone to look at me the way they look at you 
  C          Am            Fmaj7(9) 
Found myself recently mimicking the things that you do 
  G11 
Does that appeal to you? 
  C          Am 
I'm on your avenue 
  C          Am            C 
You said to pick you up after school 
             Am              Fmaj7(9)    G11 
But make sure no one sees me do it 



  C          Am 
Well we're just the best baby 
  C          Am 
Oh, so midwest baby 
  C          Am            C          Am 
Dead of the night in the parking lot sex 
  C          Am 
Maybe we could change it up? 
  C          Am 
I could tell my friends 
  C          Am            C          Am 
I could stop lying to my mom and pretending 
          Fmaj7(9)                                 G11 
Like the road goes on when it clearly says dead ending 



     Am                 G11            Fmaj7(9)      C 
Well I've been waiting for the answer so long I forgot the question 
     Am                 G11            Fmaj7(9)             C 
Poured my heart out to the walls and found that they matched your affection 
Am     G11        Fmaj7(9)      C 
Do you see, you're tearing at my body? 
Am            G11        Fmaj7(9)       G11 
Every time you want it I think that I'm wanted 

( Am  G11  Fmaj7(9)  C ) 
( C Am  C Am ) 

(Ooh, ooh, ooh) 

( Fmaj7(9)  G11 ) 



  C          Am            C          Am 
We went to the statewide music competition 
  C          Am 
Placed in the same hotel room 
  C          Am            C          Am 
We made the decision to stay in separate beds 
  C          Am 
But behind the concert stands 
  C          Am            C          Am 
You told me if I wanted to that I could hold your hand 
           Fmaj7(9)                               G11 
But not in front of your cool friends, just the ones in band 



     Am                 G11            Fmaj7(9)      C 
Well I've been waiting for the answer so long I forgot the question 
     Am                 G11            Fmaj7(9)             C 
Poured my heart out to the walls and found that they matched your affection 
Am     G11        Fmaj7(9)      C 
Do you see, you're tearing at my body? 
Am            G11        Fmaj7(9)       G11 
Every time you want it I think that I'm wanted 



     Am              G11    Fmaj7(9)      C 
So I will share your body with anyone who wants it 
     Am              G11    Fmaj7(9)        C 
I know it's what you want, but I really wish it wasn't 
     Am         G11    Fmaj7(9)         C 
I could be your kingpin, I could be your captain 
     Am           G11    Fmaj7(9)         C 
I could have your children, I could be important 
     Am         G11    Fmaj7(9)         C 
Let me be in your orbit, let me be your mountain 
Am            G11 Fmaj7(9)         G11 
I will be the dragon burning it to ashes
