Graham Parker – Soul On Ice lyrics

Intro D Bm D Bm D Bm

A F#m Bm E A F#m Bm E
Every story told me, is wasted on my ears
A F#m Bm E A F#m Bm E
Ah someone else's therapy, well someone else's fears
F#m E
Every body said ah come onto my side,
F#m E
Just to lead me up a blind alley way
F#m D A
Nothing worse than a fool's advice
E D
And it aint't hot enough for a soul on ice

Dhorus
F#m E D
Freezin Freezin like a soul on ice
Freezin Freezin like a soul on ice
F#m D E D E
Freezin Freezin like a soul on ice, Freezin!

Try to read the sharp words but they don't even cut
They're stupid and they're absurd, they're just another rut
Well baby I am gonna crash on a main road
Yeah and I am run aground on a sea
Nothing worse than a fool's advice
And it aint't hot enough for a soul on ice

Chorus ends on A then bridge
D
Nothing I can do, babe I'm trying to
A
Can't even get a hand from you
D
Like a stranglehold, way you least expect
E A E F#m E F#m D E
Stand right here baby, freeezin too, freezin too, freezin too,
D Bm D Bm
Freezin freezin

Everybody's sweet words they fall on stony ground
There's nothing that they can do, can do, can do
To thaw this soul down
Well, every body said ah come onto my side,
Just to lead me up a blind alley way
Nothing worse than a fool's advice
And it aint't hot enough for a soul on ice
