A5 (X2) E5 (X2)repeat

A5
I really can't stay - Baby it's cold outside 
A5    D5                          E5
I've got to go away - Baby it's cold outside 
A5
This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in 
A5        D5                        E5
So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice 
E5  F#5                                   
My mother will start to worry - Beautiful, what's your hurry 
F#5 D5
My father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the fireplace roar 
D5  F#5                       
So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry 
F#5  D5                                E5
well Maybe just a half a drink more - Put some music on while I pour
 
A5
The neighbors might think - Baby, it's bad out there
A5    D5                                       E5 
Say, what's in this drink - No cabs to be had out there 
E5 A5
I wish I knew how - Your eyes are like starlight now 
A5                   D5                    E5
To break this spell - I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
E5 F#5 
I ought to say no, no, no, sir - Mind if I move a little closer 
E5 D5                                  E5
At least I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense in hurting my pride
A5                           F#5
I really can't stay - Baby don't hold out
F#5           D5    E5      A5  
Ahh, but it's cold outside 

C'mon baby

A5
I simply must go - Baby, it's cold outside
A5   D5                               E5 
The answer is no - Ooh baby, it's cold outside 
E5    A5
This welcome has been - I'm lucky that you dropped in 
A5             D5                     E5
So nice and warm -- Look out the window at that storm 
F#5
My sister will be suspicious - Man, your lips look so delicious 
F#5 D5
My brother will be there at the door - Waves upon a tropical shore 
D5  F#5
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious - Gosh your lips look delicious 
F#5  D5                                E5
Well maybe just a half a drink more - Never such a blizzard before 

A5
I've got to go home - Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there 
A5   D5                                      E5
Say, lend me your comb - It's up to your knees out there 
E5      A5              
You've really been grand - Your eyes are like starlight now 
A5                D5               E5
But don't you see - How can you do this thing to me 
E5      F#5 
There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Making my life long sorrow 
F#5 D5                                 E5
At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and died 
E5 A5                                 F#5
I really can't stay - Get over that old out 
F#5           D5    E5      A5
Ahh, but it's cold outside
