Yet you’re afraid each thing I do C Is just some evil scheme

A memory from your lonesome past F Keeps us so far apart ─ G7 Why can’t I free your doubtful mind C And melt your cold, cold heart

VERSE 2: (C) Another love before my time G7 Made your heart sad and blue

And so my heart is paying now C For things I didn’t do

In anger unkind words are said F That make the teardrops start ─ G7 Why can’t I free your doubtful mind C And melt your cold, cold heart

G7 C

VERSE 3: (C) You’ll never know how much it hurts G7 To see you sit and cry

You know you need and want my love C Yet you’re afraid to try

Why do you run and hide from life F To try it just ain’t smart ─ G7 Why can’t I free your doubtful mind C And melt your cold, cold heart

VERSE 4: (C) There was a time when I believed G7 That you belonged to me

But now I know your heart is shackled C To a memory

The more I learn to care for you F The more we drift apart ─ G7 Why can’t I free your doubtful mind [S-L-O-W-E-R] C And melt your cold, cold heart

That you was a beauty, a sweet, sweet beauty

A sweet, sweet beauty but stone, stone cold

You’re so cold, you’re so cold, cold, cold

You’re so cold, you’re so cold

I’m so hot for you, I’m so hot for you

I’m so hot for you and you’re so cold

I’m the burning bush, I’m the burning fire

I’m the bleeding volca-a-a-a-no
