Verse 1
C 
Em 
Am 
stuck in this old city now
F 
G 
C 
Where living ain't no fun
Em 
Am 
Where steel and glass and concrete
D 
G 
D 
G 
Cancel out the wind and sun
F 
G 
And I'm thinkin' of last winter now,
C 
when we walked hand in hand
F 
C 
F 
G 
C 
In the trails of the Colorado Rockies
G 
C 
Am 
C 
The wind sang us a lullaby,
F 
G 
the snow was thick as cream
C 
Am 
C 
And icicles were chandeliers
D 
like crystals in a dream
G 
F 
And the streams were
G 
strips of diamonds,
C 
F 
and the hills were white as snow,
C 
and a bear ate all our
F 
G 
C 
soybeans in the night.
F 
G 
C 
Oh, Colorado's callin' me
F 
G 
From her hillsides and her rivers
C 
And her mesas and her trees
E 
F 
G 
When blizzards snap the power lines
C 
F 
And all the toilets freeze
C 
F 
G 
C 
In December in the Colorado Rockies
G 
C 
We had time and space and freedom
Am 
C 
F 
G 
We had love and peace to spare
C 
Em 
Am 
Though we ran out of things to smoke,
D 
say, and eat and wear
G 
F 
G 
In the morning of the avalanche,
C 
F 
the Yeti kidnapped Blanche
C 
F 
And took her to his cave
G 
C 
F 
up in the Rockies
G 
C 
Oh, Colorado's calling me
F 
G 
On her glaciers and her canyons
C 
E 
and her battle lands and ravines
F 
G 
An infectious hepatitis
C 
was all that came to stay
F 
C 
F 
C 
G 
C 
In January in the Colorado Rockies
G 
C 
Em 
Am 
The baby didn't die
C 
F 
G 
C 
until we burned up all our wood
Am 
Considering we ate her raw,
C 
Am 
D 
she tasted pretty good
G 
F 
G 
And the fascist health inspectors
C 
F 
dug us out and mailed us home
C 
Except for Blanche would
F 
G 
C 
F 
n't leave her mane
G 
C 
Oh, Colorado's calling me
F 
G 
From her meadows and her rivers
C 
E 
And her meadows and her trees
F 
G 
They tell me I'll be cured soon
C 
F 
Born and ready to return
C 
F 
G 
When it's April in the Colorado Rocks
