Cold, Cold Heart

  D                                                  A7
I tried so hard my dear to show that you're my every dream
                                                    D
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
                                          D7       G
A mem'ry from your lonesome past keeps us so far a-part
    A7                                                       D
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold, Cold Heart.

      
                                                    A7
Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
                                                  D
And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do
                                     D7                 G
In anger, unkind words are said that make the teardrops start
    A7                                                        D
Why can't I free your doubtful mind, and melt your Cold, Cold Heart.


       D                                               A7
You'll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry
                                                        D
You know you need and want my love yet you're afraid to try
                                      D7                G
Why do you run and hide from life, to try it just ain't smart
    A7                                                       D
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold, Cold Heart.



      D                                               A7
There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me
                                                D
But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory
                                      D7             G
The more I learn to care for you, the more we drift apart
    A7                                                       D
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold, Cold Heart.
