He
was born in the summer, of his twenty seventh year;
D Em C A
Coming
home to a place he'd never been before
D
He
left yesterday behind him,
Em C A
you
might say he was born again
D Em C A
You
might say he found a key for every door
D Em C A
When
he first came to the mountains, his life was far away;
D Em C A
On
the road and hanging by a song
D Em C A
But
the string's already broken, and he doesn't really care;
D Em C A
It
keeps changing fast, and it don't last for long
G A D
But
the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
G A D
I've
seen it raining fire in the sky
G A D A G
The
shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby
A D Em G
Rocky
Mountain high, Colorado

He
climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below;
D Em C A
he
saw everything as far as you can see
D
And
they say that he got crazy once,
Em C A
and
he tried to touch the sun;
D Em C A
And
he lost a friend but kept the memory
D Em C A
Now
he walks in quiet solitude, the forests and the streams;
D Em C A
seeking
grace in every step he takes
D Em C A
His
sight has turned inside himself to try and understand;
D Em C A
the
serenity of a clear blue mountain lake
G A D
And
the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
G A D
I've
seen it raining fire in the sky
G A D A G
talk
to God and listen to the casual reply
A D Em G
Rocky
Mountain high, Colorado
A D Em G A7
Rocky
Mountain high, Colorado
D
Now
his life is full of wonder,
Em C A
but
his heart still knows some fear;
D Em C A
of
a simple thing he cannot comprehend
D
Why
they try to tear the mountains down,
Em C A
To
bring in a couple more;
D Em C A
more
people, more scars upon the land
G A D
And
the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
G A D
I've
seen it raining fire in the sky
G A D A G
I
know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
A D Em G
Rocky
Mountain high, Colorado
A D Em G A7
Rocky
Mountain high, Colorado
G A D
And
the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
G A D
I've
seen it raining fire in the sky
G A D A G
Friends
around the campfire and everybody's high
A D Em G
Rocky
Mountain high, Colorado
A D Em G A7
Rocky
Mountain high, Colorado
