Colorado
[Intro]
C C/B C/A C/G F G C
[Verse 1]
C C/B C/A C/G F G C
I'm stuck in this old city now, where living ain't no fun
C C/B C/A C/G D/F# G
Where steel and glass and concrete cancel out the wind and sun
F G C F
And I'm thinking of last winter now, when we walked hand in hand
C F G C
In the trails of the Colorado Rockies
[Verse 2]
C C/B C/A C/G F G C
The wind sang us a lullaby, the snow was thick as cream
C C/B C/A C/G D/F# G
And icicles were chandeliers like crystals in a dream
F G C F
And the streams were strips of diamonds, and the fields were white as snow
C F G C C7
And a bear ate all our soybeans in the night
[Chorus]
F G C
Oh, Colorado's calling me
F G C E
From her hillsides and her rivers, and her mesas and her trees
F G C F
When blizzards snap the power lines, and all the toilets freeze
C F G C
In December in the Colorado Rockies
[Verse 3]
C C/B C/A C/G F G C
We had time and space and freedom, we had love and peace to spare
C C/B C/A C/G D/F# G
Though we ran out of things to smoke and say and eat and wear
F G C F
And the morning of the avalanche, the yeti kidnapped Blanche
C F G C
And he took her to his cave up in the Rockies
[Chorus]
F G C
Oh, Colorado's calling me
F G C E
From her glaciers and her canyons, and her badlands and ravines
F G C F
And infectious hepatitis was all that came to stay
C F G C
In January in the Colorado Rockies
[Verse 4]
C C/B C/A C/G F G C
The baby didn't die until we burned up all our wood
C C/B C/A C/G D/F# G
Considering we ate her raw, she tasted pretty good
F G C F
And the facsist health inspectors dug us out and mailed us home
C F G C
Except for Blanche, who wouldn't leave her mate
[Chorus]
F G C
Oh, Colorado's calling me
F G C E
From her mountains and her rivers, and her meadows and her trees
F G C F
They tell me I'll be cured soon, thawed and ready to return
C F G C
When it's April in the Colorado Rockies
