Indigo Girls - Cold As Ice

cold as ice ( amy ray – lead vocalist )
– – – – – – – – – – – ( emily saliers – back vocalist )

this is a pretty easy and very cool song from the indigoes!
it’s from the 1986 ep . one of the very first recordings from amy & emily .
about the chords you just have to go through all the song with those same chords :
emajor , amajor and Dsus4 or whatever it is . anyway the tab
for that last one is x00230 . practically is A D chord without tapping
the high E string . you can also alternate Dsus4 with Dsus2 and D chords .
but the more correct one is Dsus4 . enjoy!!!

A E Dsus2 A
i don’t think you understand ooh
E Dsus2 ( go on all this way out for the rest of the song )
the rhythm of my heart
there’s a strong line to mind and soul
and i feel it tearing apart .
i’ve been searching for new words
to tell you in a different way . . .
when i told you i’d hang on forever ,
i threw my choice away . . .

chorus : and it’s
E Dsus2 E Dsus2
it’s cold as ice , i can’t let go
E Dsus2 A E Dsus2
it’s cold as ice , but i need your loooooove .

and i wish i could have been the first one
oh , to walk out the door ,
but the more i find myself to blame ,
the less there is to come back for .
you wish you could have been the last one
to tell me how you really feel .
when you closed the door , oh , deep inside my heart
it still seemed so sincere .

chorus

if there’s a message to this madness
well it still seems quite unclear . . .
if i really need to save myself ,
why can’t i just walk out of here???
there’s a message in your eyes
and you make it perfectly plain ,
either i leave your heart behind
or crack beneath this freezing rain .

chorus
