Strawbs - Cold Steel (acoustic)
[Intro]
C Dm F G F G F Dm C
[Verse 1]
Dm F G
Lonely, have you ever felt lonely
F G
Like you're floating on a deep sea
F Dm
And the world is somewhere else?
C Dm
And when you're trying to disguise it
F G
Well, it only makes it deepen
F G
And trying to pretend
F Dm
Will only weigh you down
[Chorus]
Am
Cold steel
G Em
Cold steel
Am
Cold steel
G Em
Cold, cold steel
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Dm F G
Searching, is this why everybody's searching
F G
Looking to the sky
F Dm
To try to touch a star
C Dm
And when they get it in their hand
F G
Well, they never want to lose it
F G
They get a monkey on their back
F Dm
And a pocketful of sand
[Chorus]
Am
Cold steel
G Em
Cold steel
Am
Cold steel
G Em
Cold, cold steel
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Dm F G
Good times, I heard about the good times
F G
I read it in a book
F Dm
It sounded alright
C Dm
And then I thought I saw a stranger
F G
So I had to give chase
F G
She stabbed me in the back
F Dm
With a smile across her face
[Chorus]
Am
Cold steel
G Em
Cold steel
Am
Cold steel
G Em
Cold, cold steel
[Instrumental]
