  			D                                G             D  
I've tried for a long time but I think I can't win 
                                        A 
I'd do it all better if I could do it a-gain 
    D                       G            D 
Wherever I'm going it's the same place I been 
  	    A 	       D 
Ain't it a cold, cold world 
 
 	  	  	  G         D 
Outside it was hot but inside I am cold 
                                          A 
The eyes of the young met the eyes of the old 	  
      D                          G        D 
And what they were thinking I'll never be told 
  	    A 	       D 
Ain't it a cold, cold world 
 
                                    G            D 
Then an old lady asked me bout this new daylight time 
                                            A 
I said it don't matter and she said I don't mind 
         D                         G        D 
Then the bus driver said you still owe me a dime 
  	    A 	       D 
Ain't it a cold, cold world 
 
 	  	  	  G            D 
I can't get no job and I can't get no rest 	  	  
 	  	  	  	   A 
I started out east and I ended up west  
        D                      G             D 
And I'm so glad to be here I'm sure, I would guess  
  	    A 	       D 
Ain't it a cold, cold world 
 
                               G          D 
I might have to leave you, I think's what she said 
                                        A 
Wish I could sleep 'stead of tossing in bed 
      D                           G          D  
And I find myself thinking I'd be better off dead 
  	    A 	       D 
Ain't it a cold, cold world 
  	    A 	       D 
Ain't it a cold, cold world
