G C Am7 G A teenage production of West Side Story Em A7 C Am7 G My singing was crappy and my singing was poorly G But my favourite song came about second act A7 C Am7 G Play it cool, play it cool and you'll win her back
Bridge
D C G And the chorus line stepped up to take the applause D C G With their hair gel melting through their teenage pores Em A7 And the parents never knew what was behind those smiles Cadd9 G Em Play it cool, play it cool and you'll be alright A7 C Am7 G Be prepared, be prepared and she'll be alright

G C Am7 G You don't like the mornings and I sure love the night Em A7 C Am7 G That's alright baby that's no reason to fight G Lets meet up 'round seven when the cool air runs in again A7 C Am7 G and be prepared, be prepared for a long long night in
