INTRO 
 
 
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     Dm7(add9)  Dm7 
Hey, I could be a       star, 
G                       C(add9)  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
