Remove Ads Bm A Bm AAs I sit in the all night diner
Bm A Bm AYou return to your easy chair
Bm A Bm AYou awake to your work and your woman
Bm A Gmaj 7And I'll dream that it's me lying there
Bm A Bm AYou can look in my eyes but you'll never know
Bm A Bm AThere's an ache inside that I never show
Gmaj 7A defensive device
A Bm A Bm AMeant to keep my heart on ice
Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm AI keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul
Bm A BmI shield my fragile eggshell love
Gmaj 7 A>From attack during the groundswell
Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm AI'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role
Bm A BmBut the furies take their toll and their price
Gmaj 7 Bm A Bm AIs to keep my heart on ice
Bm A Bm AAs I sit in the all night diner
Bm A Bm AYou leaned back in your nightclub seat
Bm A Bm AI went out with two friends and a stranger
Bm A Gmaj 7With a laugh and a pang of defeat
Bm A Bm A BmBut I looked in your eyes as I turned to go
Bm A BmWas there something there that you couldn't show
Gmaj 7A defensive device
Bm A BmMeant to keep your heart of ice
Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm AYou keep your heart on ice you chill your holy soul
Bm A BmYou shield your fragile eggshell love
Gmaj 7 A>From attack during the groundswell
Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm AYou act the part so well you'll play your finest role
Bm A BmBut the furies take their toll and their price
Gmaj 7 Bm A Bm AIs to keep my heart on ice
Bm A Bm AAs I sit in the all night diner
Bm A Bm AI was thinking of you at the bar
Bm A Bm AAnd the smiles and the jests and the whispers
Bm Gmaj 7As I watched once again from afar
Bm A Bm ABut I looked in your eyes and I never knew
Bm A Bm ADid I read you wrong did I misconstrue
Gmaj 7 BmThe defensive device I will keep my heart on ice
Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm AI keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul
Bm A BmI shield my fragile eggshell love
Gmaj 7 A>From attack during the groundswell
Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm AI'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role
Bm A BmBut the furies take their toll and their price
