C                                                    G7
I tried so hard my dear to show that you're my every dream
                                                    C
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
                                       C7        F
A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart
    G7                                                      C
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart
 
                                                    G7
Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
                                                  C
And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do
                                    C7                 F
In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start 
    G7                                                      C
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart
 
                                                       G7
You'll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry
                                                        C
You know you need and want my love yet you're afraid to try
                                     C7                F
Why do you run and hide from life to try it just ain't smart
    G7                                                      C
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart
 
                                                      G7
There was a time when I believed that you belonged to me
                                             C
But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory
                                     C7             F
The more I learn to care for you the more we drift apart
    G7                                                      C
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your Cold Cold Heart
