G*    G
She sees them walking in a straight line, that's not really her style
              Em*                            Cadd9*

And they all got the same heartbeat, but hers is falling behind
                  Em*          Cadd9*            G*  G
Nothing in this world could ever bring them down
          Em*                  Cadd9*         G*    G
Yeah they're invincible and she's just in the background

Em                Cadd9
I wish that I could be like the cool kids
G                       D
'Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
Em                                 Cadd9
I wish that I could be like the cool kids
G               D

   G
They're driving fast cars, but they don't know where they're going

In the fast lane, living life without knowing

Hope that suffices for an accurate tab. Placement was tough, but I worked at it and I
think it's pretty much accurate. Comment if you think anything different, and you can see
Sydney Sierota (singer/guitarist) play it on YouTube in any live video, or watch Jamie 
explain it in their tutorial video.
