D5     G5 G5    A5 
 
 D5                D5          G5 
He really liked flannel with bib overalls 
 D5                                  A5           A5 
If you looked in his closet it was all that you saw 
 D5                D5          G5 
He'd dress up on Sunday and thought he looked neat 
 B5                    A5         D5         G5 
In a green leisure suit with wingtips on his feet 
 

D5             D5         G5 
I hated the music he played in the car 
 D5                                 A5           A5 
It was hard to believe he called those people stars 
  D5                      D5      G5 
They sang through their noses like they all had colds 
  B5                       A5       D5            G5 
I guess it's hard to be cool when your forty years old 
 
(chorus) 
 B5                     G5 
I was fifteen and real hip with long hair 
  D5                     A5       D5 
I'd ask my mama why's is daddy so square 
  B5                        G5 
I could't believe all that he didn't know 
 B5                         A5         D5           G5 
I guess it's hard to be cool when your forty years old 
 

D5                   D5                   G5 
The night I turned twenty she came with the news 
D5                                A5           A5 
Scared half to death and didn't know what to do 
 D5               D5       G5 
I told her I'm sorry, but it's not too late 
 B5                       A5        D5       G5 
There's a doctor I've heard of that fixes mistakes 
 

 D5                 D5            G5 
I thought he was working and I was alone 
 D5                                    A5           A5  
But he was standing behind me when I hung up the phone 
 D5                 D5                  G5 
He said Son there's a few things you don't know about 
 B5                     A5        D5         G5  
If you listen real close we can figure this out 
 
(chorus) 
 B5                           G5         
Cause I was eighteen and as wild as they came 
 D5                              A5            D5 
When one night a young girl told me the same thing 
 B5                         G5 
You would't be here if she hadn't said no 
             B5              A5           D5        G5   
You see, It's hard to be cool when your twenty years old 
 

 D5                  D5      G5 
These days I like flannel and old Levi jeans 
 D5                             A5           A5 
And I look at my young boy who just turned fifteen 
 D5                 D5        G5 
I know what he's thinking but it's ok you know 
          B5                 A5                        G5 
You see, It's hard to be cool when your fifteen years old
