FD#FFD#FFD#FFD#F[Verse 1]FFmaj7F
I really can't stay
baby it's cold outside
Gm
I've got to go away
but I can call you a ride
FFmaj7F
The evening has been
I'm so glad that you dropped in
Cm7F
So very nice
time spent with you is paradise
[Chorus]A#
My mom will start worry
I'll call the car and tell him to hurry
A#m
And daddy will be pacing the floor
wait, what are you still livin' home for?
F
So really i'd better scurry
your driver his name is Murray
GmC
But maybe just a half a drink more
oh we're both adults so who's keepin' score
[Verse 2]FFmaj7F
What will my friends think?
I think they should rejoice
Gm
If I have one more drink?
it's your body and your choice
FFmaj7F
Ooh you really know how
your eyes are like starlight now
Cm7F
To cast a spell
One look at you and then I fell
[Chorus]A#
I ought to say, "No, no, no sir"
then you really ought to go, go, go
A#m
At least i'm gonna say that i tried
well Murray he just pulled up outside
FD#7D7
I really can't stay
I understand baby
G7CF
Baby, it's cold outside
Baby, it's cold outside
[Verse 3]FFmaj7F
I simply should go
text me when you get home
Gm
Oh I'm supposed to say no
mm I guess that's respectable
FFmaj7F
This welcome has been
I'm lucky that you dropped in
Cm7F
So nice and warm
but you better go before it storms
[Chorus]A#
My sister will be suspicious
well gosh your lips look delicious
A#m
My brother will be there at the door
oh he loves my music baby I'm sure
F
My gossipy neighbor's vicious
I'm a genie tell me what your wish is
GmC
But maybe just a cigarette more
oh that's somethin' we should probably explore
[Verse 4]FFmaj7F
I've got to get home
oh, baby, I'm well aware
Gm
Say, lend me your coat
oh keep it girl I don't care
FFmaj7F
You've really been grand
I feel when you touch my hand
Cm7F
Don't you see?
I want you to stay, it's not up to me
[Chorus]A#
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
well they can talk, what do they know
A#m
At least there will be plenty implied
oh let their mind do this and go
FD#7D7
Murray just go!
[Murray:] "Ma'am I really can't stay"
[Outro]Gm7
It's coooooold baby
It's coooooold baby
A#m/C#
It's coooooold baby
It's coooooold baby
F/CCm/D#D7Gm7CF
But baby, it's cold outside
