   [Ariana Grande]
   I really can't stay

[Larry Lovestein]
Baby it's cold outside

[Ariana Grande]
G                G7
I got to go away

[Larry Lovestein]
But baby it's cold outside

[Ariana Grande]
C
This evening has been

[Larry Lovestein]
Been hoping that you'd drop in

[Ariana Grande]
        Gm
So very nice

[Larry Lovestein]
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

[Ariana Grande]
F
My mama will start to worry

[Larry Lovestein]
Beautiful, what's your hurry?

[Ariana Grande]
Fm
My daddy will be pacing the floor

[Larry Lovestein]
Listen to the fireplace roar

[Ariana Grande]
C
Really I better scurry

[Larry Lovestein]
Beautiful, please don't hurry

[Ariana Grande]
G
Maybe just half a drink more

[Larry Lovestein]
Put some records on while I pour

[Ariana Grande]
C
The neighbors might think

[Larry Lovestein]
Baby it's bad out there

[Ariana Grande]
G
Say, what's in this drink?

[Larry Lovestein]
No cabs to be had out there

[Ariana Grande]
C
I wish I knew how

[Larry Lovestein]
Your eyes are like star light

[Ariana Grande]
              Gm
To break this spell

[Larry Lovestein]
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell

[Ariana Grande]
F
I ought to say: "No, no, no, sir"

[Larry Lovestein]
Mind if I move in a bit closer?

[Ariana Grande]
Fm
At least I'm going to say I tried

[Larry Lovestein]
What's the sense of hurting my pride?

[Chorus]
[Ariana Grande]
F                           C
I really can't stay

[Larry Lovestein]
Baby, don't hold out

[Both]
F               G     C
Baby, it's cold outside

[Verse 2]
[Ariana Grande]
I simply must go

[Larry Lovestein]
Baby, it's cold outside

[Ariana Grande]
G7
The answer is no

[Larry Lovestein]
Baby, it's cold outside

[Ariana Grande]
C
The welcome has been

[Larry Lovestein]
How lovely that you dropped in

[Ariana Grande]
          Gm
So nice and warm

[Larry Lovestein]
Look out the window and see the storm

[Ariana Grande]
F
My sister will be suspicious

[Larry Lovestein]
Gosh, your lips look delicious

[Ariana Grande]
Fm
My brother will be there at the door

[Larry Lovestein]
Waves upon a tropical shore

[Ariana Grande]
C
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious

[Larry Lovestein]
Gosh, your lips look delicious

[Ariana Grande]
G
Maybe just a cigarette more

[Larry Lovestein]
Never such a blizzard before

[Ariana Grande]
C
I got to get home

[Larry Lovestein]
But baby, you'll freeze out there

[Ariana Grande]
G7
Say, lend me your coat

[Larry Lovestein]
It's up to your knees right there

[Ariana Grande]
C
You've really been grand

[Larry Lovestein]
I thrill when you touch my hand

[Ariana Grande]
C7
But don't you see

[Larry Lovestein]
How can you do this thing to me?

[Ariana Grande]
F
There's bound to be talk tomorrow

[Larry Lovestein]
Think of my life long sorrow

[Ariana Grande]
Fm
At least there'll be plenty implied

[Larry Lovestein]
If you caught pneumonia and died

[Chorus]
[Ariana Grande]
C
I really can't stay

[Larry Lovestein]

Baby, don't hold out

[Both]
C                     G
But baby, it's cold outside...
