The Mountain Goats - You were cool

^DThis is a song with the s^Aame four chords I use ^Emmost of the time when I've got so^Gmething on my mind And I d^Don't want to squander the ^Amoment Trying to come ^Emup with a better way to say^G what I want to say

^DPeople were mean to y^Aou ^Embut I always thought you were c^Gool ^Dclicking down the concrete h^Aallway with your sp^Emiked heels back in h^Gigh school.

^DIt's good to be young^A but let's not kid ourselves It's b^Emetter to pass on through those y^Gears and come out the other side ^DWith our hearts still b^Aeating Having ^Emstared down demons; c^Gome back breathing

^DPeople were mean to y^Aou ^Embut I always thought you were c^Gool ^Dclicking down the concrete ha^Allway with your s^Empiked heels back in h^Gigh school.

^GYou deserved be^Atter than you got Someone's g^Dot to say it sometime because it's t^Grue. ^EmPeople should have told you you were a^Awesome, Instead of t^Daking advantage of yo^Au. ^DI hope you love yo^Aur life ^EmLike I love m^Gine. ^DI hope the painful memories only f^Alex their power over ^Emyou A li^Gttle of the time. ^DWe held onto the h^Aope of better days coming ^EmAnd when we did we were r^Gight. ^DI hope the people who d^Aid you wrong ^EmHave trouble sleeping at nigh^Gt.

^DPeople were mean to y^Aou ^Embut I always thought you were c^Gool ^Dclicking down the concrete ha^Allway with your s^Empiked heels back in h^Gigh school.
