Intro: C 

Verse: 
C 
I am rubber 

You are glue 

Ain't that the saying  

You used to use 
        F 
On the cool kids 

Verse: 
C 
I know you are 

But what am I 

I must have said that 

A million times 
        F 
To the cool kids 

Pre-Chorus 
 G 
And it don't matter 
 Dm 
What they say 
F 
I bet right now somewhere 
            G 
There is a first grade 

 C 
Cool kid 

I can see him now 
 F 
Wondering why daddy don't come around 

           C 
There's a cool kid 

She's home alone 
 F 
She needs her mama 

But nobody knows 

         Am                        D 
When you get to the source of the pain 
 F          Dm        F 
There ain't no such thing 
        C 
As the cool kids 

Verse: 
C 
Every boy and 

Every girl 

At some point seems to  

Think the world 
        F 
Of the cool kids 

Pre-Chorus 
    G 
And I don't guess 
Dm 
Much has changed 
       F             
'Cause I know right now 
                        G 
Somewhere there is an eighth grade 

 C 
Cool kid 

At a Saturday game 
     F 
And there's no one there for him 

Cheering his name 

           C 
There's a cool kid 

In trouble at home 
    F 
She has to pretend 

So that nobody knows 

         Am                        D 
When you get to the source of the pain 
 F          Dm       F 
There ain't no such thing 
        C 
As the cool kids
