Hard Skool

[Verse 1] All cautions made, every chance was given No effort spared to save what we had All in good faith I would not hesitate To extend myself and lend you my hand [Chorus] But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay If that were true, it wouldn't matter anyway [Verse 2] As tempers fade and lies forgiven No cause embraced could break what we had In its place a storm is liftin' I would've thought you could be more of a man [Chorus] But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay If that were true, it wouldn't matter anyway [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy Ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy [Chorus] But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay If that were true, it wouldn't matter anyway Had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay If that were true, it wouldn't matter anyway Had to play it cool, had to do it your way Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay If that were true, it wouldn't matter anyway
