Verse 1:

--------

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

2244xx 2222xx 2244xx 2222xx

Charm 'em, don't alarm 'em, keep things light

2244xx 2222xx 2244xx 2222xx

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

0022xx 000000 0022xx 0000xx

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

5577xx 5555xx 5577xx 5555xx

0022xx 000000 0022xx 0000xx

2244xx 2222xx 2244xx 2222xx

2244xx 2222xx 2244xx 2222xx

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

(Repeat intro riff)
