I really can't stay
But baby it's cold outside

 Dm  G7  Dm  G7
I've got to go away
But baby it's cold outside

 C  Cmaj7  C  C
The evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in

 Gm7  Gm7  C7  C7
So very nice
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

 F  F  F  F
My mother will start 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

 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?

 C  Bb7  A7  A7
I really can't stay
Baby don't hold out

 D7  G7  C  C
Ah, but it's cold outside
