G                      D           Am
He's standing on your doorstep my love
G                   D          Am
So aren't you gonna invite him in
G             D              Am
Well isn't he everything you want
C            G    D             Am
Oh no, I forgot, you want everything

Em         Bm                     Am
Well, your mom, she says he's the perfect catch
Em       Bm                           Am
And your dad he tells you you're the perfect match

Chorus:
        G       D                 Am
But I know, I know he leaves you cold
             G                 D
He leaves an ice cube in your heart
       Am                C
And a snowflake in your soul
    G       D       Am
I know, I know, I know
                    G  D Am
That he leaves you cold

See him tapping on your window, my love
But you're pretending that you're not there
But he's seen your car parked outside
Oh no, you forgot
To turn the lights off upstairs

Well, your friends, they tell you he's what you need
But how the hell would they know what you need

Chorus

                        Am
Well I know that you're lonely
D               Am
Even when he's around
Em       D                 G             C   Am
Well my love, he's not the only game in town

              G       D                  Am
Yeah well I know, I know he leaves you cold
             G                 D
He leaves an ice cube in your heart
       Am                C
And a snowflake in your soul
    G       D       Am
I know, I know, I know
              G       D       Am
Yeah well I know, I know, I know
         G       D       Am
Said I know, I know, I know
