I really can't stay

But baby it's cold outside

I've got to go away

But baby it's cold outside

The evening has been

Been hoping that you'd drop in

So very nice

I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

My mother will start to worry

Beautiful what's your hurry?

 Fm  Fm  Fm  Fm
And father will be pacing the floor

Listen to the fireplace roar

 C  C  C  C
So really I'd better scurry

Beautiful please don't hurry

 Dm  Dm  G  G
But maybe just a half a drink more

Put some records on while I pour [Verse]

 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  C
I wish I knew how

Your eyes are like starlight now

 Gm7  Gm7  C7  C7
To break the spell

I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell

 F  F  F  F
I ought to say, "No, no, no sir"

Mind if I move in closer

 Fm  Fm  G7  G7
At least I'm gonna say that I tried

What's the sense in hurtin' my pride? [Chorus]

 C  Bb7  A7  A7
I really can't stay

Baby don't hold out

Ah, but it's cold outside

I simply must go

But, baby, it's cold outside

The answer is no

But, baby, it's cold outside [Verse]

Your welcome has been

How lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm

Look out the window at the storm

 F     F       F     F
My sister will be suspicious

Gosh, your lips look delicious

 Fm      Fm         Fm          Fm
My brother will be there at the door

Waves upon the tropical shore

 C         C        C         C
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious

Gosh, your lips are delicious

 Dm       Dm      G       G
But maybe just a cigarette more

Never such a blizzard before

 C  Cmaj7  C  Cmaj7
I've gotta get home

But, baby, you'd freeze out there

 Dm  G7  Dm  G7
Say, lend me a coat

It's up to your knees out there

 C      Cmaj7      C     C
You've really been grand

I thrill when you touch my hand

 Gm7   Gm7   C7   C7
But don't you see?

How can you do this thing to me?

 F     F     F     F
There's bound to be talk tomorrow

Think of my lifelong sorrow

 Fm     Fm     G7     G7
At least there will be plenty implied

If you got pneumonia and died [Chorus]

 C  Bb7  A7  A7
I really can't stay

Get over that old doubt

             D7    G7 C
Ah, but it's cold outside

C
Where could you be going

When the wind is blowing and it's cold outside

       D7  G7      C  C
Baby, it's cold cold outside
