D Dsus Gadd9
He really liked flannel with bib overalls
D A A7
If you looked in his closet it was all that you saw
D Dsus Gadd9
He'd dress up on Sunday and thought he looked neat
Bm A D/F# G
In a green leisure suit with wingtips on his feet
D Dsus Gadd9
I hated the music he played in the car
D A A7
It was hard to believe he called those people stars
D Dsus Gadd9
They sang through their noses like they all had colds
Bm A D/F# G
I guess it's hard to be cool when your forty years old
(chorus)
Bm G
I was fifteen and real hip with long hair
D A D/F#
I'd ask my mama why's is daddy so square
Bm G
I could't believe all that he didn't know
Bm A D/F# G
I guess it's hard to be cool when your forty years old
D Dsus Gadd9
The night I turned twenty she came with the news
D A A7
Scared half to death and didn't know what to do
D Dsus Gadd9

I told her I'm sorry, but it's not too late
Bm A D/F# G
There's a doctor I've heard of that fixes mistakes
D Dsus Gadd9
I thought he was working and I was alone
D A A7
But he was standing behind me when I hung up the phone
D Dsus Gadd9
He said Son there's a few things you don't know about
Bm A D/F# G
If you listen real close we can figure this out
(chorus)
Bm G
Cause I was eighteen and as wild as they came
D A D/F#
When one night a young girl told me the same thing
Bm G
You would't be here if she hadn't said no
Bm A D/F# G
You see, It's hard to be cool when your twenty years old
D Dsus Gadd9
These days I like flannel and old Levi jeans
D A A7
And I look at my young boy who just turned fifteen
D D/F# Gadd9
I know what he's thinking but it's ok you know
Bm A G
You see, It's hard to be cool when your fifteen years old
G A D
