Tracy chapman's cold feet

original song.

lyrics + guitar chords:

D

There was a little boy

C

once upon a time, who in

G G

spite of his young age and small size, knew his mind. For

D

every copper penny and

C

clover he would find, make a

G G

wish for better days, the end of hard times for no more...

chorus:

C D G G

cold feet. Cold cold cold cold cold feet...

(now keep playing D C G G for the verses and C D G for

the choruses the whole song...)

verse2:

D

His clothes were alway clean,

C

his face was always scrubbed, there was

G G

food on the table, enough to fill him up. His

D

house was full of life, his

C

house was full of love, but when

G G

winterdays arrived, there was never money enough to shod this

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

verse3:

D

He grew up to be a worker

C

determined to succeed, he made a

G

life for himself free from

G

worldly wants or needs. But with no-

D

body to share the life he'd made no-

C

body to keep him warm

G G

at night, when he'd go to sleep he'd sleep alone with his...

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

verse4:

D

One night he walked the street looking

C

to the heaven above searching

G G

for a shooting star, a benevolved god. When a

D

woman passing by brushed his

C

arm he turned and found love. He then

G G

wished for the courage to ask this stranger who she was to not have...

G D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

verse5:

D

One year later he stood beside her. He vowed I'll give you

C

everything you want. She said, "I'll

G G

take some love from my heart to keep your body warm, you won't have...

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet"...

verse6:

D

He thought she'd like the party life and

C

want the finer things, so he

G

promised more than he could by, He'd

G

promised her the sun and the moon to not have...

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

verse7:

D

He worked day and night, his

C

fingers to the bone.

G

His worried mind, guilty conscience drive him on. He can

D

give her what she needs. He wants to

C

give her what he thinks she wants. Her

G G G G

sad eyed face, his empty pockets drive him on___________ and his...

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

verse8:

D

He'd struggled all his life to

C

be an honest man, proud that the

G G

dirt on his palms was the soil of the land, but some

D

guys he knew from high school days

C

said they had a plan to get

G G

rich real quick and they could count him in if he don't have...

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

verse9:

D

He thought about their offer,

C

accepted it without qualms.

G G

Dreamt about the life he'd buy, the comfort that would come without...

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

verse10:

D

He decided to drive the car, he de-

C

cided to carry the gun, to take the

G G

biggest risk of all to prove his loyalty to his friends. He de-

D

cided to tell his wife

C

things would soon turn around. He said,"The

G G

little boy is dead, a man stands with you now, without...

C D G G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...

C D G G

Without ... cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet..."

verse11:

D

He thought he'd set his clock right. He

C

thought he'd read his wath. He

G G

left in such a hurry, he didn't think to wish for luck. Makes no

D

difference if you're early, no

C

difference if you're late,

G G G

when you're out of time. The flowers have been laid. You're six feet underground with

C D G

cold feet, cold cold cold cold feet...
