[Verse 1]
  Bb           Bb7
I really can't stay (but baby it's cold outside)
     Cm7        F7                 F7/Eb   F7
I've got to go 'way (but baby it's cold outside)
     Bb          Bb7
This evening has been (been hoping that you'd drop in)
        Fm7                  Bb7                      Eb
So very nice (I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)
                        Ebm7
My mother will start to worry (beautiful, what's your hurry?)
    C7                        C/G
And father will be pacing the floor (listen to that fireplace roar)
   Bb                 Gm7
So really I'd better scurry (beautiful, please don't hurry)
     C7                        F7    F*
Well maybe just a half a drink more (put some records on while I pour)
 
[Verse 2]
    Bb               Bb7
The neighbours might think (but baby it's bad out there)
    Cm7            F7                    F7/Eb   F7
Say what's in this drink? (No cabs to be had out there)
  Bb          Bb7                               Bb
I wish I knew how (your eyes are like starlight now)
             Fm7                   Bb7
To break the spell (I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)
  Eb
I ought to say no, no, no, sir (mind if I move in closer?)
   C7                         F7     F*                             Bb
At least I'm gonna say that I tried (what's the sense of hurting my pride?)
                                Ab7       G7
I really can't stay (baby don't hold out)
             C    F7 Bb
Ah, but it's cold outside

[Verse 3]
  Bb          Bb7                       Bb
I simply must go (but baby it's cold outside)
    Cm7       F7                F7/Eb   F7
The answer is no (but baby it's cold outside)
     Bb          Bb7
This welcome has been (how lucky that you dropped in)
            Fm7                Bb7
So nice and warm (look out the window at that storm!)
   Eb                   Ebm7
My sister will be suspicious (gosh your lips look delicious!)
   C7                           C/G
My brother will be there at the door (waves upon a tropical shore)
   Bb                       Gm7
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious (boy, your lips look delicious!)
     C7                     F7    F*
Well maybe just a cigarette more (never such a blizzard before)
 
[Outro]
  Bb         Bb7                               Bb
I got to get home (but, baby you'll freeze out there)
     Cm7          F7                    F7/Eb     F7
Say, lend me your comb (it's up to your knees out there)
       Bb          Bb7
You've really been grand (I'll thrill when you touch my hand)
              Fm7               Bb7
But don't you see? (How can you do this thing to me?)
        Eb                 Ebm7
There's bound to be talk tomorrow (think of my life-long sorrow)
   C7                           F7     F*                          Bb
At least there will be plenty implied (if you caught pneumonia and died)
                                     Ab7       G7
I really can't stay (get rid of that hold out)
             C        F7      Bb
Ah, but it's cold.... out.....side
