AEmDDsus4Dsus2 Cold hands, warm heart we just need some time apart And everything will be okay Oh no, not again why does it always happen? It seems like every other day
You're too quiet, I'm too loud now we've rid a storm cloud I'll see you on the other side Old habits, young ways maybe we're just a phase But we can say we really try
BmEGDF# And it really shouldn't be this hard You know it really shouldn't be (echo) BmA And if we can only see it this far A/GA/F#A/E Well then I hate to say it, but it's obvious I'm telling you, girl, there's D no future for us
All talk, no action so what's the big attraction? And don't tell me it's "just because" All work, no play don't wanna go on this way I wanna go back to the way it was
And it really shouldn't be this hard you know it really shouldn't be And if we can only take it this far Well then we've got to end it before it's too late the love that is left turns quickly to hate
Cold hands, warm heart we just need some time apart And everything will be okay
