I [F]really can't [F7]stay But baby it's cold outside I've [Gm7]got to go [C7]'way But baby it's cold outside This [F]evening has [F7]been Been hoping that you'd drop in So very [Cm7]nice I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice My [Bb]mother will start to worry Beautiful words you're humming And [Bb7]father will be pacing the floor Listen to the fireplace roar So [F]really I'd better [Dm7]scurry Beautiful, please don't hurry Well, [G7]maybe just a half a drink [C7]more Put some records on while I pour The [F]neighbors might [F7]think But baby it's bad out there Say, [Gm7]what's in this [C7]drink? No cabs to be had out there I [F]wish I knew [F7]how Your eyes are like starlight now To break the [Cm7]spell I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell I [Bb]ought to say no, no, no sir Mind if I move in closer? At [Bb7]least I'm gonna say that I [C7]tried What's the sense of hurtin' my pride? I [F]really can't [F7]stay Oh baby don't hold out Ah but it's [G7]cold [C7]out[F]side Baby it's cold outside I [F]simply must [F7]go But baby it's cold outside The [Gm7]answer is [C7]no But baby it's cold outside The [F]welcome has [F7]been How lucky that you dropped in So nice and [Cm7]warm Look out that window at that storm My [Bb]sister will be suspicious Gosh your lips look delicious My [Bb7]brother will be there at the door Waves upon a tropical shore My [F]maiden aunt's mind is [Dm7]vicious Gosh your lips are delicious Well, [G7]maybe just a cigarette [C7]more Never such a blizzard before I've [F]got to get [F7]home But baby you'd freeze out there Say, [Gm7]lend me a [C7]coat It's up to your knees out there You've [F]really been [F7]grand I'm thrilled when you touch my hand Why don't you [Cm7]see How can you do this thing to me? There's [Bb]bound to be talk tomorrow Think of my lifelong sorrow At [Bb7]least there will be plenty im[C7]plied If you caught pneumonia and died I [F]really can't [F7]stay Get over that hold-out Ah but it's [G7]cold [C7]out[F]side Ah but it's cold outside Baby it's [G7]cold, [C7]cold out[F]side
