'Cold As Christmas (In The Middle Of The Year)' by Elton John - Guitar Tutorial

            Intro: F  C  D/E  C

              G            Em7
We still sit at separate tables
               C             G
And we sleep at different times
               D                 Em
And the warm wind in the palm trees
                  C
Hasn't helped to change our minds
                  G         Em7
It was the lure of the tropics
               C                 G
That I thought might heal the scars
          D                   Em
Of a love burned out by silence
           C
In a marriage minus heart
             B7
And I call the kids on the telephone
                   Em
Say there's something wrong out here
          C                   G
It's July but it's cold as Christmas
                D
In the middle of the year
          Am/E
The temperature's up to ninety five
                   Am       Am/G        F
But there's a winter look in your mother's eyes
           C                            E/G#
And to melt the tears there's a heat wave here
       F                 C                         G      F
So how come it's cold as Christmas in the middle of the year
                       G            Em7
I dreamed of love in a better climate
                C            G
And for what it's really worth
            D                     Em
I put faith in the star we followed
                 C
To this Caribbean surf
                         G           Em7
But there's an icy fringe on everything
             C           G
And I cannot find the lines
                      D               Em
Where's the beauty in the beast we made
                 C
Why the frost in the summertime
