Verse:
A
I really can't stay - Baby it's cold outside
D                          E
I've got to go away - Baby it's cold outside
A
This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in
D                        E
So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
F#m
My mother will start to worry - Beautiful, what's your hurry
D

My father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the fireplace roar
F#m
So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry
D                                        E
well Maybe just a half a drink more - Put some music on while I pour


Verse:
A
The neighbors might think - Baby, it's bad out there
D                                       E
Say, what's in this drink - No cabs to be had out there
A
I wish I knew how - Your eyes are like starlight now
D                                  E7
To break this spell - I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
F#m
I ought to say no, no, no, sir - Mind if I move a little closer
D                                       E
At least I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense in hurting my pride
A                           F#m
I really can't stay - Baby don't hold out
F#m           D    E7      A
Ahh, but it's cold outside

C'mon baby


Verse:
A
I simply must go - Baby, it's cold outside
D                               E
The answer is no - Ooh baby, it's cold outside
A
This welcome has been - I'm lucky that you dropped in
 D                     E7
So nice and warm -- Look out the window at that storm
F#m
My sister will be suspicious - Man, your lips look so delicious
 D
My brother will be there at the door - Waves upon a tropical shore
F#m
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious - Gosh your lips look delicious
D                                       E
Well maybe just a cigarette more - Never such a blizzard before


Verse:
A
I've got to go home - Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
 D                                      E
Say, lend me your coat - It's up to your knees out there
 A
You've really been grand - Your eyes are like starlight now
 D                      E7
But don't you see - How can you do this thing to me
 F#m
There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Making my life long sorrow
 D                                 E
At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and died
A                                 F#m
I really can't stay - Get over that old out
F#m           D    E7      A
Ahh, but it's cold outside
