 Gm                 F
Sweet life livin', pools and swimming.
 Dm                 D#
Drinks in bars and boys in cars and
 Gm                F
rooftop sitting, skinny dipping,
  Dm                 D#
shooting stars with fat cigars and

      Gm                        F
That weekend up in the islands, they stop and stare.
  Dm                             D#
Flashes filling the silence of a Hollywood love affair.
 Gm                      F
Waking up in the islands, 'cause I saw you there,
Dm
lost and trying to be

Chorus:
                     Gm
I was just tryna to be cool,
F                           A# D#
I was just tryna to be like you.
                      Gm
I'm a spark and you're a boom,
F                      A# D#
what am I supposed to do?

Mansion debut
Love it, do you?
Absent father
Pays his daughter
And her mama withdrew
From the life they once knew
She had a heart
But she sold it off for

And that weekend up in the islands
They stop and stare
Flashes filling the silence
Of a Hollywood love affair
Waking up in the islands
Cause I saw you there
Lost and trying to be

Chorus

                    Gm
When I've got that cigarrete
smoke and Saint Laurent coat,
     F                            A#
But nothing is feeling right, I drink but I choke,
                    D#
I love but I don't, yeah.

Chorus:
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
I'm a spark and you're a boom
What am I supposed to do?

When I've got that cigarette smoke
And Saint Laurent coat, but nothing is feeling right
I drink but I choke
I love but I don't, yeah

I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you
