It's so cold here in Chi-cago the wind can cut you like a knife  
        G7           C    Am                       D     
Another day, another doll-ar what a way to spend a life  
        G         C     G              D              G

Than those green eyes, all red from cry-ing on my Blue Ridge Mountain girl
