CAPO: 1st Fret
INTRO: Em C G Em (4x)
Doing it since I was ten
C G Em
Now the mountains brought me back again
C G Em
To many questions, but no time to wonder why
I miss them more than words can say
C G Em
And I wish that she were here today
C G D
That can't be, so I guess I'm doing fine
Snow melted outside, spring is here
C G
And I'm wondering how I'll be this year
Em C G D
Cannot be brave, but I'll make anybody proud
C
I take your fooling, knowing mine
G
Tomorrow could be snow
Em C G
And I can just go right in and put behind a [dowd]
INTERLUDE: Em C G Em C G Em
Lot's of memories in this old town
C G Em
Learned some things here that have made me down
C G Em
And I remember him doing [ ? ? ? ]
Families ties run deep
C G Em
And as I drift off to sleep
C G D
I think about all on the slopes who await me and when I wake
Rudy Bob just sat in the sphere
C G
And I ponder, simply staying here
Em C G D
And I can't resist that place that I call home
The snow melts and new life begins
C G
Of springs rushing forth again
Em C G
I am renewed, I know I'll never be alone
INTERLUDE: Em C G Em C G Em C G Em C G Em
Coming here since I was ten
C G Em
The mountains brought me back again
C G
No more questions, I need just ride for awhile
