E                   B7           E
Can I sleep in your arms tonight lady?
                            B7
It's so cold lying here all alone
    E          E7           A
And I have no holds to hold on you
   B                 B7        E
I assure you I'll do you no wrong

[Verse 1]
E                       B7         E
Don't know why but the one I love left me
                               B7
Left me lonely and cold and so weak
    E               E7        A
And I need someone's arms to hold me
         B                     B7         E
Till I'm strong enough to get back on my feet

[Chorus]
E                   B7           E
Can I sleep in your arms tonight lady?
                            B7
It's so cold lying here all alone
    E          E7           A
And I have no holds to hold on you
   B                 B7        E
I assure you I'll do you no wrong

[Verse 2]
E                 B7             E
I haven't smiled since she left me
                                   B7
Cause a smile somehow seems out of place
      E                     A
And I just need two lips to kiss me
       B                   B7            E
Then I can smile again and I can show my face

[Chorus]
E                   B7           E
Can I sleep in your arms tonight lady?
                            B7
It's so cold lying here all alone
    E          E7           A
And I have no holds to hold on you
   B                 B7        E
I assure you I'll do you no wrong

[Bridge]
E   E   E   E
E   E   B7  B7
E   E7  A7  A7
B       E A E

[Chorus]
E                   B7           E
Can I sleep in your arms tonight lady?
                            B7
It's so cold lying here all alone
    E          E7           A
And I have no holds to hold on you
   B                 B7        E A E
I assure you I'll do you no wrong

[Outro]
