verse1:

       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...






That's all. The rythm and the malody for each single verse varies...

Hope you enjoy the song, peat...
