Cold Feet

A A E D A A
verse1:

       E
There was a little boy

D
once upon a time, who in

A                                 A
spite of his young age and small size, knew his mind. For

E
every copper penny and

D
clover he would find, make a

A                         A
wish for better days, the end of hard times for no more...
chorus:

D           E                       A       A
cold feet. Cold cold cold cold cold feet...
(now keep playing E D A G for the verses and D E G for
the choruses the whole song...)
verse2:

     E
His clothes were alway clean,

D
his face was always scrubbed, there was

A                            A
food on the table, enough to fill him up. His

E
house was full of life, his

D
house was full of love, but when

A                             A
winterdays arrived, there was never money enough to shod this

D           E                   A      A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse3:

        E
He grew up to be a worker

D
determined to succeed, he made a

A
life for himself free from

A
worldly wants or needs. But with no-

E
body to share the life he'd made no-

D
body to keep him warm

A                                  A
at night, when he'd go to sleep he'd sleep alone with his...

D           E                    A    A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse4:

     E
One night he walked the street looking

D
to the heaven above searching

A                        A
for a shooting star, a benevolved god. When a

E
woman passing by brushed his

D
arm he turned and found love. He then

A                                    A
wished for the courage to ask this stranger who she was to not have...

A          E                    A      A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse5:

         E
One year later he stood beside her. He vowed I'll give you

D
everything you want. She said, I'll

A                                A
take some love from my heart to keep your body warm, you won't have...

D           E                  A       A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse6:

   E
He thought she'd like the party life and

D
want the finer things, so he

A
promised more than he could by, He'd

A
promised her the sun and the moon to not have...

D          E                    A      A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse7:

    E
He worked day and night, his

D
fingers to the bone.

A
His worried mind, guilty conscience drive him on. He can

E
give her what she needs. He wants to

D
give her what he thinks she wants. Her

A                        A                   A         A
sad eyed face, his empty pockets drive him on___________ and his...

D          E                   A      A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse8:

     E
He'd struggled all his life to

D
be an honest man, proud that the

A                          A
dirt on his palms was the soil of the land, but some

E
guys he knew from high school days

D
said they had a plan to get

A                                A
rich real quick and they could count him in if he don't have...

D           E                   A      A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse9:

    E
He thought about their offer,

D
accepted it without qualms.

A                                   A
Dreamt about the life he'd buy, the comfort that would come without...

D           E                  A        A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse10:

      E
He decided to drive the car, he de-

D
cided to carry the gun, to take the

A                                 A
biggest risk of all to prove his loyalty to his friends. He de-

E
cided to tell his wife

D
things would soon turn around. He said,The

A                     A
little boy is dead, a man stands with you now, without...

D           E                    A      A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

             D          E                    A        A
Without ...  cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
verse11:

    E
He thought he'd set his clock right. He

D
thought he'd read his wath. He

A                               A
left in such a hurry, he didn't think to wish for luck. Makes no

E
difference if you're early, no

D
difference if you're late,

A                            A                              A
when you're out of time. The flowers have been laid. You're six feet underground
 with

D            E                   A
cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
