COLD COLD HEART
JOHNNY CASH
Originally by Hank Williams
This is from a show that he did.
  G                                                  D7
I tried so hard my dear to show that you're my every dream
                                                    G
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
                                          G7      C
A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart
    D7
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold 
     G
cold heart
 G                                                  D7
Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
                                                   G
And so my heart is praying now for things I didn't do
                                    G7
In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops 
C
start
    D7
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold
G
heart
       G                                               D7
You'll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry
                                                        G
You know you need and want my love yet you're afraid to try
                                     G7
Why do you run and hide from life to try it ain't just 
C
smart
    D7
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold
G
heart
      G                                               D7
There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me
                                               G
But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory
                                     G7             C
The more I learn to care for you the more we drift apart
    D7
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold
G
heart
