A#G#A#A#G#A#A#G#A#A#G#A#[Verse 1]A#A#maj7A#
I really can't stay
baby it's cold outside
Cm
I've got to go away
but I can call you a ride
A#A#maj7A#
The evening has been
I'm so glad that you dropped in
Fm7A#
So very nice
time spent with you is paradise
[Chorus]D#
My mom will start worry
I'll call the car and tell him to hurry
D#m
And daddy will be pacing the floor
wait, what are you still livin' home for?
A#
So really i'd better scurry
your driver his name is Murray
CmF
But maybe just a half a drink more
oh we're both adults so who's keepin' score
[Verse 2]A#A#maj7A#
What will my friends think?
I think they should rejoice
Cm
If I have one more drink?
it's your body and your choice
A#A#maj7A#
Ooh you really know how
your eyes are like starlight now
Fm7A#
To cast a spell
One look at you and then I fell
[Chorus]D#
I ought to say, "No, no, no sir"
then you really ought to go, go, go
D#m
At least i'm gonna say that i tried
well Murray he just pulled up outside
A#G#7G7
I really can't stay
I understand baby
C7FA#
Baby, it's cold outside
Baby, it's cold outside
[Verse 3]A#A#maj7A#
I simply should go
text me when you get home
Cm
Oh I'm supposed to say no
mm I guess that's respectable
A#A#maj7A#
This welcome has been
I'm lucky that you dropped in
Fm7A#
So nice and warm
but you better go before it storms
[Chorus]D#
My sister will be suspicious
well gosh your lips look delicious
D#m
My brother will be there at the door
oh he loves my music baby I'm sure
A#
My gossipy neighbor's vicious
I'm a genie tell me what your wish is
CmF
But maybe just a cigarette more
oh that's somethin' we should probably explore
[Verse 4]A#A#maj7A#
I've got to get home
oh, baby, I'm well aware
Cm
Say, lend me your coat
oh keep it girl I don't care
A#A#maj7A#
You've really been grand
I feel when you touch my hand
Fm7A#
Don't you see?
I want you to stay, it's not up to me
[Chorus]D#
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
well they can talk, what do they know
D#m
At least there will be plenty implied
oh let their mind do this and go
A#G#7G7
Murray just go!
[Murray:] "Ma'am I really can't stay"
[Outro]Cm7
It's coooooold baby
It's coooooold baby
D#m/F#
It's coooooold baby
It's coooooold baby
A#/FFm/G#G7Cm7FA#
But baby, it's cold outside
