I've tried for a long time but I think I can't win
A
I'd do it all better if I could do it again
D G D
Wherever I'm going it's the same place I been
A D
Ain't it a cold, cold world
G D
Outside it was hot but inside I am cold
A
The eyes of the young met the eyes of the old
D G D
And what they were thinking I'll never be told
A D
Ain't it a cold, cold world
G D
Then an old lady asked me bout this new daylight time
A
I said it don't matter and she said I don't mind
D G D
Then the bus driver said you still owe me a dime
A D
Ain't it a cold, cold world
G D
I can't get no job and I can't get no rest
A
I started out east and I ended up west
D G D
And I'm so glad to be here I'm sure, I would guess
A D
Ain't it a cold, cold world
G D
I might have to leave you, I think's what she said
A
Wish I could sleep 'stead of tossing in bed
D G D
And I find myself thinking I'd be better off dead
A D
Ain't it a cold, cold world
A D
Ain't it a cold, cold world
