Chords for John Denver - Rocky Mountain High (From "Around The World Live" DVD)

_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[E] He was born in the summer [F#m] of his [D] 27th [B] year
Coming home to [E] a place he'd never been before
Left yesterday behind [F#] him, you might say he was [D] born [E] again
Might say he found the key, he [A] thread the door _
[E] When he first came to the mountains, [F#m] his life was [D] far away
[E] On the road, hanging [F#m] by a song _
[E] But the string's already broken, [F#m] and he doesn't [D] really care
[E] Keeps changing fast, it don't [F#m] last for [A] long
_ Colorado, [B] Rocky [E] Mountain High _
[A] I've seen it rain and fire [E] and sky
_ [A] Shadows [F#] from the [E] starlight, the song of ever [A]-loving light
_ _ _ Rocky [E] Mountain High
_ [F#m] _ _ [A] _ [E] Rocky Mountain High
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
[E] He climbed Cathedral Mountain, [F#m] saw silver clouds below
[B]
[E] Saw everything as far as you [F#m] can see
_ [E]
And they say that he got crazy [F#m] once, and he tried to touch the [B] sun
[E] And he lost a friend that kept [F#m] his memory _ _
[E] Now he walks in quiet solitude, [F#m] the forests and the [D] streams
Seeking [E] grace in every [F#m] step he takes
[E] His sight is turned inside [F#m] himself to try [D] and understand
[E] The serenity of a clear [F#m] blue mountain _ [A] lake
_ Colorado, [E] Rocky _ _ _ [A] Mountain High
I've seen it [B] rain and fire [E] and sky _
_ [A] You can talk to God, [B] listen to [E] the casual [A] reply
_ _ _ _ Rocky [E] Mountain High
_ _ [F#m] _ Now [E] _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ [E]
his life's just full of wonder, [F#] but his heart still knows some [B] fear
[E] Of the simple thing he cannot [F#m] comprehend _
Why [E] they try to tear the mountains [F#m] down to bring in a couple [D] more
[E] More people, more scars [F#m] upon the land _
_ [A] Colorado, [B] Rocky [E] Mountain High _
[A] I've seen it rain and fire [E] and sky _
[A] I know he'd [F#] be a poor man [E] if he never saw an [A] eagle fly
Rocky _ _ _ [E] Mountain High
_ _ [A] Colorado, [B] Rocky Mountain [E]
High
_ I've seen it [B] rain and fire [E] and sky
