[Intro]
Dm   F   Bb  Edim7   C#dim7
[Verse 1]
DmHe keeps all his sleepless Fnights
In the bags under his Bbeyes
And he asks if it's Edim7alright
If I leave C#dim7after we're doneDm  
DmAnd so I gather up my Fpride,
Throw my shirt over my Bbshoulder
And his last scorn in Edim7my side
He C#dim7says he's waiting on Gsomeone,
He's waiting on Bbsomeone
[Verse 2]
DmBut I take solace in the Ffact
That his past is checkered as the Bbblanket
That he drapes across his Edim7back
As he C#dim7turns away to Dmsleep
DmAnd that boy's a stiff old Fdrink
You always wonder why you Bbdrank it
And it burns more than you Edim7think
Still that C#dim7burns all I Gkeep
Oh, that burns all I Bbkeep
C C#dim7
[Chorus]
DmDon't grow DmcolCdDm  
DmDon't grow cold Con Fme
I'm C#dim7cold enough for Gboth of Fus, so,
DmDon't lose your DmholCdDm  
Don't lose your Chold on Fme
I'm C#dim7twice the fool I Gknew FI'd be
Dm  F  Bb Edim7 C#dim7
[Verse 3]
DmWell I wonder if I need Fhim
Maybe I'm just smittenBb  
By the grass that's so forEdim7bidden
On his C#dim7side of the Dmfence
DmI'm a feather in his Fcap
I'm the fresh notch on his Bbbedpost
And the thing that hurts my Edim7head mostC#dim7  
I feel a Gchance
Oh, I swear I feel Bba chance
[Chorus]
C C#dim7
DmDon't grow DmcolCdDm  
DmDon't grow cold Con Fme
I'm C#dim7cold enough for Gboth of Fus, so,
DmDon't lose your DmholCdDm  
Don't lose your Chold on Fme
I'm C#dim7twice the fool I Gknew FI'd beGm  
[Interlude]
Dm  F  Bb  Edim7  C#dim7
Dm  F  Gm  Bb
C C#dim7
[Outro]
DmDon't grow cold
FDon't grow cold on Bbme
Ohh Edim7don't grow C#dim7cooo-ld
DmDon't grow cold
FDon't grow cold on Bbme
I'm Edim7twice the fool I C#dim7knew I'd beDm

[Intro]

Dm F Bb Edim7 C#dim7

[Verse 1]

Dm F

He keeps all his sleepless nights

In the bags under his eyes

Edim7

And he asks if it's alright

C#dim7 Dm

If I leave after we're done

Dm F

And so I gather up my pride,

Throw my shirt over my shoulder

Edim7

And his last scorn in my side

C#dim7 G

He says he's waiting on someone,

He's waiting on someone

[Verse 2]

Dm F

But I take solace in the fact

That his past is checkered as the blanket

Edim7

That he drapes across his back

C#dim7 Dm

As he turns away to sleep

Dm F

And that boy's a stiff old drink

You always wonder why you drank it

Edim7

And it burns more than you think

Still that burns all I keep

Oh, that burns all I keep

[Verse 3]

Dm F

Well I wonder if I need him

Maybe I'm just smitten

Edim7

By the grass that's so forbidden

C#dim7 Dm

On his side of the fence

Dm F

I'm a feather in his cap

I'm the fresh notch on his bedpost

Edim7 C#dim7

And the thing that hurts my head most

I feel a chance

Oh, I swear I feel a chance

[Chorus]
