Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][C][G]

[Verse 1]
I [D]guess he'd rather [C]be in Colo[G]rado
He'd [D]rather spend his [C]time out
where the [G]sky looks like a [D]pearl after a [C]rain
Once a[G]gain I see him walkin
Once a[D]gain I hear him talking
to the [Em]stars he makes
And [C]asking them for [G]bus fare

[Verse 2]
I [D]guess he'd rather [C]be in Colo[G]rado
He'd [D]rather play his [C]banjo in the [G]morning
when the [D]moon is scarcely [C]gone
In the [G]dawn the subways comin
In the [D]dawn I hear him hummin'
Some old [Em]song he wrote
of [C]love in Boulder [G]Canyon

[Solo 1]
I [D]guess he'd rather [C]be in Colo[G]rado
[D][C][G][D]
[C][G]

[Verse 3]
I [D]guess he'd rather [C]be in Colo[G]rado
I [D]guess he'd rather [C]work
out where the [G]only thing you [D]earn
is what you [C]spend
In the [G]end up in his office
In the [D]end a quiet cough
is all he [Em]has to show
He [C]lives in New York [G]City
