Got maybe cold out (4,2)

I believe the answer is:

came by

'got' is the definition.
(coming by is a kind of getting)

'maybe cold out' is the wordplay.
'cold' becomes 'c' (eg on taps).
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'maybe'+'c'='maybec'
'maybec' with letters rearranged gives 'CAME BY'.
