Well I got friends from Colorado

Made the plans, booked the day, spent the money too

C
So I'm chillin' in a cabin at the tip-top

Lookin' at a holler full of hemlocks

No cars, no bars or my phone
G
And just when you think I'm all alone
[Chorus 2]

On a Rocky Mountain high

What kind of company I keep, yeah
