Stop Being So Cool And Get Silly

• Dm

I play these with full power chords,
but I only listed the bass notes.
The strumming is slightly more complex,
but I listed it as 1234 to get the note changes if needed

in D minor (from what I tabbed) it sounds pretty accurate to me.

the chords over the lyrics used to be on the right word (or before the right word)
but my file got messed up. so it should be easy to figure out anyways.
