EF#mDB He was born in the summer of his twenty seventh year EF#mA Coming home to a place he'd never been before E He left yesterday behind him F#mDB you might say he was born again EF#mA You might say he found a key for every door
EF#mDB When he first came to the mountains his life was far away EF#mA On the road and hanging by a song EF#mDB But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care EF#mB It keeps changing fast and it don't last for long
ABE But the Colorado Rocky Mountain high ABE I've seen it raining fire in the sky ABEBA The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby BEF#mA Rocky Mountain high Colorado BEF#mAB7 Rocky Mountain high Colorado
EF#mDB He climbed cathedral mountains he saw silver clouds below EF#mA he saw everything as far as you can see E And they say that he got crazy once F#mDB and he tried to touch the sun EF#mDB And he lost a friend but kept the memory
EF#mDB Now he walks in quiet solitude the forests and the streams EF#mA seeking grace in every step he takes EF#mDB His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand EF#mDA the serenity of a clear blue mountain lake
ABE And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high ABE I've seen it raining fire in the sky ABEBA talk to God and listen to the casual reply BEF#mA Rocky Mountain high Colorado BEF#mAB7 Rocky Mountain high Colorado
E Now his life is full of wonder F#mDB but his heart still knows some fear EF#mDA of a simple thing he cannot comprehend E Why they try to tear the mountains down F#mDB To bring in a couple more EF#mDA more people more scars upon the land
ABE And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high ABE I've seen it raining fire in the sky ABEBA I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly BE Rocky Mountain high
ABE And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high ABE I've seen it raining fire in the sky ABEA Friends around the campfire and everybody's high BEF#mA Rocky Mountain high Colorado BEF#mA Rocky Mountain high Colorado BEF#mA Rocky Mountain high Colorado BEF#mA Rocky Mountain high Colorado
