[F#m][Em]

[Verse 1]
He was [D]born
in the summer [Em]of his [Asus4]27th year,
Coming [D]home to a place he'd
never been [Em]before.[G]
He left [D]yesterday behind him,
you might [Em]say he was born [Asus4]again,
You might [D]say he found a key
for every [Em]door.[G]
[Asus4]When he first cam[D]e to the mountains,
His [Em]life was far [Asus4]away on the road[D]
and hanging by [Em]a song.[G]
[Asus4]But the strings a[D]lready broken and
he [Em]doesn't really [Asus4]care,
It keeps [D]changing fast,
and it don't last [Em]for long.[G]
[Asus4]And the

[Verse 2]
[Bm]Colorado Rocky Mountain [G]high,
I've [A]seen it raining [Asus4]fire in the sky.[F#m]
The [G]shadows from [A]the star[Asus4]light
[Bm]are softer than a [G]lullaby.
Rocky Mountain [D]high, [F#m]Color ado.
[Em]Rocky Mountain high.[D]
[F#m]

[Verse 3]
[Em]
[Asus4]He climbe[D]d cathedral mountains,
He saw sil[Em]ver clouds bel[Asus4]ow,
He saw [D]everything as far as
you can [Em]see.[G]
[Asus4]And they say that [D]he got crazy once
and he [Em]tried to touch the sun[Asus4],
And he [D]lost a friend,
but kept [Em]the memory.[G]
[Asus4]Now he walks in [D]quiet solitude,
The [Em]forest and [Asus4]the streams,
seeking [D]grace in every step [Em]he takes.[G]
[Asus4]His sight[D] is turned inside himself,
to [Em]try and under[Asus4]stand
[D]The serenity of a clear blue
mountain [Em]lake.[G]
[Asus4]And the Colorado [Bm]Rocky

[Verse 4]
Mountain [G]high,
I've [A]seen it raining [Asus4]fire
in [A]the [F#m]sky.[D]
You can [G]talk to God and [A]listen
to the [Bm]cas ual r[G]eply.
Rocky Mountain [D]high, [F#m]Color ado.
[A]Roc[Em]ky Mo[Asus4]untain[D][F#m][Asus4]
high.
[D][F#m][A][Asus4][D]

[Verse 5]
[F#m][A][Em]
[Asus4]Now his life is f[D]ull of wonder,
But his [G]heart still knows [Dsus4]some fear,
[D]Of a simple thing he can
not [G]comprehend.
Why they [D]try to tear the mountains
down to [Em]bring in a couple [Asus4]more,
More [D]people, more scars upon [Em]the land.[G]
And [Asus4]the

[Verse 6]
[Bm]Colorado Rocky
Mountain [G]high,
I've [A]seen it raining [Asus4]fire
[A]in the [F#m]sky.[A][F#m]
I [G]know he'd be [A]a poor man if he
[Bm]nev er saw an eagle [G]fly,
Rocky [Asus4]Mountain [D]high, the Col[G]orado
[A]Rocky Mountain [D]high,
I've [G]seen it raining [A]fire in the [D]sky.
[G]Friends around [A]the campfire
[Bm]and everybody's [G]high
Rocky [Asus4]Mountain [D]high, Colorado.
[A]Roc[Em]ky Mountai[Asus4]n high.[D][A]
[Asus4]Rocky Mountain hig[D]h, Colorado[F#m].
