Fadd9 C

G Am Fadd9 C


  Fadd9 
I met her in a snowstorm
      C
I was outdoors plowing
         Fadd9
she just walked up to me and said
C
hey boy, how's it going
     Fadd9
I admired her straight-forwardness
    C
and brushed away my fringe
     Fadd9
as a signal of well-being
      C
and accepting her challenge
   Fadd9
we went home to her place
    C
and cooked up some chili
Fadd9
  warmed us from the inside
           C
'cause the outside was chilly
   Fadd9
we   had to be quiet
       C
to not wake up her family
      Fadd9
but I made a high pitched sound
         C
when her cold fingers touched me


         G
she said,  shhh
Am
please be quiet
  Fadd9
I know you don't want to
    C
but please deny it
         G
she said,  shhh
Am
please be quiet
  Fadd9
I know you don't want to
    C
but please deny it

Fadd9 C (4x)

when people think of Sweden
I think they have the wrong idea
like Cliff Richards who thought
it was just porn and gonorrhea
and Lou Reed said in the film
"Blue in the face"
that compared to New York City
Sweden was a scary place

they seem to have a point
after meeting with this girl
maybe not Cliff Richards but Lou has surely met her

the doubt in her eyes
when I said I wanted to kiss her
for the sake of liking her
not because of the blizzard

she said, shhh
please be quiet
I know you don't want to
but please deny it

she said, shhh
please be quiet
I know you don't want me
but please deny it

'cause the cold Swedish winter
is right outside
and I just want somebody
to hold me through the night

the cold Swedish winter
is right outside
and I just want somebody
to hold me through the night

in two thousand years
this place will be covered by ice
and the people who will dig us up
will be in for a big surprise

after carefully studying our calcium-nourished bones
they'll find enclosed our hearts of stone

singing, the cold Swedish winter
is right outside
and I just want somebody
to hold me through the night

the cold Swedish winter
is right outside
and I just want somebody
to hold me through the night
