C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
I really can't stay
But baby it's cold outside
Dm G7 Dm G7
I've got to go away
But baby it's cold outside
C Cmaj7 C
The evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in
Gm7 C7
So very nice
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
Chorus :
F
My mother will start worry
Beautiful what’s your hurry?
Fm
And father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireplace roar
C
So really i'd better scurry
Beautiful please don't hurry
Dm G
But maybe just a half a drink more
Put some records on while I pour
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
The neighbors might think
Baby it's bad out there
Dm G7 Dm G7
Say, what's in this drink?
No cabs to be had out there
C Cmaj7 C
I wish i knew how
Your eyes are like starlight now
Gm7 C7
To break the spell
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
Chorus :
F
I ought to say, "No, no, no sir"
Mind if I move in closer?
Fm G7
At least i'm gonna say that i tried
What's the sense in hurtin' my pride?
C Bb7 A7
I really can't stay
Baby don't hold out
D7 G7 C
Ah, but it's cold outside
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
I simply must go
Baby, it's cold outside
Dm G7 Dm G7
The answer is no
Ooh darling, it's cold outside
C Cmaj7 C C
This welcome has been
I'm lucky that you dropped in
Gm7 C7
So nice and warm
Look out the window at that storm
Chorus :
F
My sister will be suspicious
Man, your lips look delicious
Fm
My brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore
C
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Gosh your lips are delicious
Dm G
Well maybe just a half a drink more
Never such a blizzard before
C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
I've got to go home
Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
Dm G7 Dm G7
Say, lend me your coat
It's up to your knees out there
C Cmaj7 C
You've really been grand
I thrill when you touch my hand
Gm7 C7
But don't you see?
How can you do this thing to me?
Chorus :
F
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
Think of my life long sorrow
Fm G7
At least there will be plenty implied
If you caught pneumonia and died
C Bb7 A7
I really can't stay
Get over that hold out
D7 G7 C
Ahh, but it's cold outside
