[Eb]
[Fm] [Ab]
[F] [Bb] [Eb]
[Fm] [F]
He was born in the summer of [Fm] his 27th year
Coming home to a place he'd never been [Ab] before
[F]
He left yesterday behind him, you might [Fm] say he was [Db] born [Bb] again
You might say he found a key to every door
[Ab] [F]
[Bb] When he first came to the mountains, his life was far [Db] away
[Bb] On a rope and hanging [Fm] by a stone
[Ab] But [F]
[Bb] the string's already broken [Fm] and he doesn't [Db] really care
[Bb] It keeps [Eb] changing fast, but it don't [Fm] last for long
[Ab] In [F] the [Abm] Colorado, [Bb] Rocky Mountain [Eb]
High
[Ab]
I've seen it all, a [Bb] red fire in [Ebm] the sky
[Ab]
A shadow from [Bb] the starlight, [F]
softer than a [Ab] lullaby
Rocky [Eb] Mountain High,
[Bb] [Ab] Colorado
[F] Rocky Mountain [Bb] High, [Fm] Colorado
[Ab]
[Bb] He climbed Cathedral Mountains, he [Fm] saw silver [Db] clouds below
[F] He saw [Bb] everything as far as you [Fm] can see
[Ab]
And [F] [Bb] they say that he got crazy once [Fm] and he tried to touch [Db] the sun
[Bb] And he lost a friend who kept the [Fm] memory
[Bb] Now he walks in quiet solitude, [Fm] the forest and [Db] the streams
[Bb] Seeking grace in every step [Fm] he takes
[F] His [Bb] sight is turned inside himself [Fm] to try and [Db] understand
[Bb] The serenity of a clear blue [Fm] mountain lake
[Ab] In [F] the Colorado, Rocky Mountain High
[Ab] I've seen it, a [F] red fire in [Bb] the sky
[Ab] Talk to [Bb] God and listen to [F] the casual [Ab]
reply
Rocky Mountain [Eb]
High, [Fm]
Colorado
[Ab] Rocky [Eb] Mountain High, [Fm]
Colorado
[Bb] Now his life is full of wonder, [Fm] but his heart still [Db] knows some fear
[Eb] From the simple thing he cannot [Fm]
comprehend
[Ab] Why [F] they [Eb] try to tear the mountains [Fm] down and bring in a couple [Db] more
[Eb] More people, more scars upon [Fm] the land
[Ab] In the Colorado, Rocky Mountain [Eb] High
