[G]
Well, [C] it's a [F] mighty [C] lonesome feeling Listening [F] to the [C] wind a-howling
[F] Watching raindrops [C] come a-falling [Am] To [D] the pavement outside [G] your door
[C] It's a fool [F] I [C] am for waiting For [F] the sound of [C] your returning
For [F] the sound of [G] gentle breathing [Am] [G] Footsteps across the floor
[F] [G] [C]
Well, I [F] can't remain [C] no longer [F] I'm headed out to [C] Colorado
When [F] the sun [C] brings in the morning [A] I'll be leaving on [G] my way
[C] Well, the grass is growing green there [F] The warm winds are rolling [C] down the mountain
[F] Down inside some lonesome [Em] canyon That's [G] where I [C] mean to stay
[F] [C]
If you ever come to Denver [F] Mama, please don't try [C] to find me
[F] All you do is [C] just remind me [D] Of the way you let [G] me down
[C] Well, dreams, [F] they're [C] easily shattered But [F] you got to go [C] on living
[F] Well, maybe that's [C] the reason [Am] I'm [G] Colorado [C]-bound
[G] I'm Colorado [C]-bound
