She came on to him like a slow moving cold front
Ab Fm Eb
His beer was warmer that the look in her eye
Db Eb Fm
She sat on the stool, and she said "What do you want
Ab Db Eb Ab
She said Give me a love that don't freeze up inside
Ab Db Ab
He said, I have melted some hearts in my time dear
Ab Fm Eb
But to sit next to you Lord I shiver and shake
Db Eb Fm
And if I knew love, well I don't think I'd be here
Ab Db Eb Ab
Askin' myself if I had what it takes
Db Eb Ab
To melt your icy blue heart
Db Fm Db Eb
Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years
Ab
Into a river of tears
Ab Db Ab
These days we all play cool calm and collected
Fm Eb
Our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze
Db Fm
But under the frost, wee thought he detected
Ab Db Eb Ab
A warm blush of red, and the touch of her knee
Db Ab
He said you're a beauty like I've never witnessed
Fm Eb
And I've seen the northern lights dance in the air
Db Eb Fm
I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss
Ab Db Eb
Abd There's not enough heat in the fires burning there
Db Eb Ab
To melt your icy blue heart
Db Fm Db Eb
Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years
Ab
Into a river of tears
Db Eb Ab Db
To melt your icy blue heart
