Shawn Colvin Heart On Ice written by Judith Zweiman
Lucy Kaplanski
         Bm         A         Bm  A
As I sit in the all night diner
       Bm           A    Bm A
You return to your easy chair
      Bm            A            Bm  A
You awake to your work and your woman
Bm A Gmaj 7
And I'll dream that it's me lying there
          Bm        A               Bm    A
You can look in my eyes but you'll never know
             Bm       A         Bm     A
There's an ache inside that I never show
Gmaj 7
A defensive device
                  A        Bm A  Bm A
Meant to keep my heart on ice
   Bm       A       Bm  A Bm       A    Bm A
I keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul
   Bm        A       Bm
I shield my fragile eggshell love
Gmaj 7 A
>From attack during the groundswell
      Bm      A       Bm  A     Bm       A      Bm A
I'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role
         Bm     A          Bm
But the furies take their toll and their price
Gmaj 7 Bm A Bm A
Is to keep my heart on ice
         Bm          A        Bm A
As I sit in the all night diner
             Bm           A         Bm A
You leaned back in your nightclub seat
        Bm           A              Bm   A
I went out with two friends and a stranger
Bm A Gmaj 7
With a laugh and a pang of defeat
       Bm             A         Bm        A  Bm
But I looked in your eyes as I turned to go
           Bm        A              Bm
Was there something there that you couldn't show
Gmaj 7
A defensive device
          Bm        A        Bm
Meant to keep your heart of ice
    Bm         A       Bm A  Bm       A    Bm A
You keep your heart on ice you chill your holy soul
     Bm          A       Bm
You shield your fragile eggshell love
Gmaj 7 A
>From attack during the groundswell
      Bm      A       Bm    A     Bm            A      Bm   A
You act the part so well you'll play your finest role
         Bm     A          Bm
But the furies take their toll and their price
Gmaj 7 Bm A Bm A
Is to keep my heart on ice
         Bm         A         Bm  A
As I sit in the all night diner
       Bm          A          Bm A
I was thinking of you at the bar
         Bm             A             Bm  A
And the smiles and the jests and the whispers
Bm Gmaj 7
As I watched once again from afar
       Bm            A           Bm    A
But I looked in your eyes and I never knew
       Bm       A            Bm    A
Did I read you wrong did I misconstrue
Gmaj 7 Bm
The defensive device I will keep my heart on ice
   Bm       A       Bm  A Bm       A    Bm A
I keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul
   Bm        A       Bm
I shield my fragile eggshell love
Gmaj 7 A
>From attack during the groundswell
      Bm      A       Bm  A     Bm       A      Bm A
I'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role
         Bm     A          Bm
But the furies take their toll and their price
Gmaj 7 Bm A Bm A
Is to keep my heart on ice
