John Denver - Rocky mountain high

He was ^Eborn in the summer, of his ^F#mtwenty seventh ^Dyear;^B Coming ^Ehome to a place he'd never ^F#mbeen before ^{A B} He left ^Eyesterday behind him, you might ^F#msay he was born a^Dgain ^B You might ^Esay he found a key for every ^F#mdoor ^{A B}

When he ^Efirst came to the mountains, his ^F#mlife was far a^Dway; ^B On the ^Eroad and hanging by a ^F#msong ^{A B} But the ^Estring's already broken, and he ^F#mdoesn't really ^Dcare;^B It keeps ^Echanging fast, and it don't last for ^F#mlong ^{A B}

But the ^AColorado ^BRocky Mountain ^Ehigh I've ^Aseen it raining ^Bfire in the ^Esky The ^Ashadow from the ^Bstarlight is ^Esofter than a ^F#mlul - ^G#mla - ^Aby Rocky Mountain ^Ehigh, Colo^F#mrado ^{A B} Rocky Mountain ^Ehigh, Colo^F#mrado ^{A B}

He ^Eclimbed cathedral mountains, he ^F#msaw silver clouds be^Dlow; ^B he saw ^Eeverything as far as you can ^F#msee ^{A B} And they ^Esay that he got crazy once, and he ^F#mtried to touch the ^Dsun; ^B And he ^Elost a friend but kept the ^F#mmemory ^{A B}

Now he ^Ewalks in quiet solitude, the ^F#mforests and the ^Dstrea^Bms; seeking ^Egrace in every ^F#mstep he takes^{A B} His ^Esight has turned inside himself to ^F#mtry and under^Dstand^B; the se^Erenity of a clear blue mountain ^F#mlake ^{A B}

And the ^AColorado ^BRocky Mountain ^Ehigh I've ^Aseen it raining ^Bfire in the ^Esky ^Atalk to God and ^Blisten to the ^Ecas^F#mual ^G#mre - ^Aply Rocky Mountain ^Ehigh, Colo^F#mrado ^{A B} Rocky Mountain ^Ehigh, Colo^F#mrado ^{A B}

Now his ^Elife is full of wonder, but his ^F#mheart still knows some ^Dfear;^B of a ^Esimple thing he cannot compre^F#mhend ^{A B} Why they ^Etry to tear the mountains down, To ^F#mbring in a couple ^Dmore;^B more ^Epeople, more scars upon the ^F#mland ^{A B}

And the ^AColorado ^BRocky Mountain ^Ehigh I've ^Aseen it raining ^Bfire in the ^Esky I ^Aknow he'd be a p^Boorer man if he ^Enever saw an ^F#meag - ^G#mle fl^Ay Rocky Mountain ^Ehigh
