C                          G
Coolness is staring at the sun

Coolness is driving with my son
C                               G

Time and time again I'm not the one

I wish I had the beauty you hold inside

Although this song is nearly two years old, it is still a great tune.  I hope it's appreciated because I have yet to locate it anywhere on the web.  Email me with any comments, questions, requests, threats, blah...blah...blah.


Happy strumming!
