       77777x   7799xx    7777xx  7799xx                 7777xx
If there's one rule to this game everybody's gonna name, it's


0022xx  000000  0022xx  0000xx
Be cool


              5577xx  5555xx  5577xx                 5555xx
If you're worried or uncertain, if your feelings are hurtin'


          0022xx  000000       0022xx  0000xx
You're a fool if you can't keep cool

Keep your worries out of sight


          555555   5577xx  5555xx  5577xx        5555xx
And play it cool, play it cool,     fifty-fifty fire and ice


0022xx   000000   0022xx   0055xx   007700

0022xx   0000xx   0022xx



Verse 2:
--------

(Same chords as verse 1)


If your heart is on the floor
Cause you've just seen your lover
Comin' through the door with a new fool--
Be cool
Don't get riled
Smile-keep it light
Be your own best friend tonight
And play it cool
Play it cool
Fifty-fifty
Fire and ice


Middle 8:
---------

555555     5577xx  5555xx  5577xx  5555xx  5577xx
Don't get jealous, don't get over-zealous

Keep your cool


    555555   5577xx   5555xx  7777xx    7799xx  7777xx
Don't whine,              kiss off that flaky valentine


99BBxx  9999xx  99BB99
You're nobody's fool


777777  7799xx  7777xx  7799xx  7777xx

0022xx  000000  0022xx  0000xx
Be cool fool

       555555   5577xx  5555xx  5577xx        5555xx
Play it cool, play it cool,     fifty-fifty fire and ice



Verse 3:
--------

So if there's one rule to this game
Everybody's gonna name
It's--be cool
If you're worried or uncertain
If your feelings are hurtin'
You're a fool if you can't keep cool
They want you to
Charm 'em
Don't alarm 'em
Keep things light
Keep your worries out of sight
And play it cool
Play it cool
Fifty-fifty
Fire and ice
