            D               D 
When I went out to start my car 
          A7                   D             
It was so cold that it hurt my face 
                 D                      D
My car wouldn’t start when I turned the key 
     G             D
Good Lord it is so cold 

A7       D         
O mother it’s so cold,
G             D
it’s so cold, it’s so cold 
A7       D         
O mother it’s so cold, 
G                  D
trying to start my car 
  
            D                  D 
I asked my neighbor to jump my car 
                A7                        D       
We got out the cables, hooked them to the posts 
              D                  D 
I turned the key and it made no sound 
      G             D
Good Lord it is so cold

A7       D         
O father it’s so cold, 
G             D
it’s so cold, it’s so cold 
A7       D         
O father it’s so cold, 
G                 D
trying to jump my car 
 
            D                      D 
When I went down to the corner bus stop 
              A7           D       
To wait for the bus to go downtown 
            D              D 
I wish I’d worn a hat and scarf 
     G             D
Good Lord it is so cold 

A7        D         
O brother it’s so cold, 
G             D
it’s so cold, it’s so cold 
A7        D         
O brother it’s so cold, 
G                      D
down at the corner bus stop 
 
              D                     D 
 I waited and waited for the bus to come 
           A7            D       
Along with six other refugees 
            D                  D 
We looked down the street, the empty street 
     G             D
Good Lord it is so cold 

A7       D         
O sister, it’s so cold, 
G             D
it’s so cold, it’s so cold 
A7       D         
O sister it’s so cold, 
G                      D
waiting for the bus to come 
 
            D              D 
I sometimes think of Santa Fe, 
     A7                  D       
Santa Fe and a beautiful day 
        D               D 
Sitting in an outdoor café 
   G          D
In my gold lame’ 

A7       D         
O mother let’s go down, 
G              D
Let’s go down, come on down 
A7       D         
O mother let’s go down 
G             D
Down to Santa Fe.
