[F] [C] [E]
[Bm] [C] [G] We still sit at separate [D] tables And we [C] sleep at different [G] times
And the [D] warm wind in the [Em] palm trees Hasn't [C] helped to change our minds
[D] It was [G] the lure of the [E] traffic That I [C] thought might heal the [G] scars
Of [D] a love burned out by [Em] silence And [C] a married man's heart
And [Em] I call [B] the kids on the telephone And say [Em] there's something wrong out here
It's [C] July but it's cold [G] as Christmas In [D] the middle of the year
[E] September does up to ninety-five But [Am] there's a winter look in [F] your mother's eye
And to [C] melt the tears that [E] are here With you [F] somehow
It's [C] as cold as Christmas in [G] the [F] middle of the year
[Bm] [C] I [Em] [C] [F]
[B] [C] [E] [D] [C]
dreamed [G] of love in [Em] a bed of flowers And for [C] what it's really [G] worth
I put [D] faith in the star we [Em] follow To this [C] Caribbean surf
[G] But there's an icy [Em] fringe on everything And I [C] cannot find the [G] lights
Where's [D] the beauty in [Em] the peace we make While [C] the frost in the summertime
And [B] I call the kids on the telephone And say [Em] there's something wrong out here
It's [C] July but it's cold [G] as Christmas In [D] the middle of the year
