Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Colorado christmas

^CLooking out the window of this hollywood ^Dmhotel, ^GYoud never know that it was christmas ^Ceve. ^CThe billboards and the neon took the place of ^Dmsilver bells, ^GAnd the temperature is 84 ^Cdegrees. ^AmI can hear the traffic on the ^Emcrowded strip below ^AmAs the palm trees poke their heads above the ^Emscene ^CTheres not a single reindeer and it hardly ^Dmever snows, And s^Ganta drives a rolls royce ^Climosine.

^AmBut all along the rockies you can ^Emfeel it in the air ^AmFrom telluride to boulder down ^Embelow ^CThe closest thing to heaven on this planet ^DManywhere ^GIs a quiet christmas morning in the colorado ^Csnow

^CI remember christmases when I was just a^Dm boy ^GIn the morning I would run to see the ^Ctree. ^CAnd the carolers on the hillside sang their ^Dmsongs of christmas joy ^GWell, I always thought they sang them just f^Cor me. ^AmNow the sun is setting in the ^Emcalifornia sky ^AmAnd I cant find the spirit ^Emanywhere ^CSo I think its time for me to tell los an^Dmgeles goodbye ^GIm going back home toook for christmas ^Cthere

^AmBut all along the rockies you can ^Emfeel it in the air ^AmFrom telluride to boulder down ^Embelow ^CThe closest thing to heaven on this planet ^DManywhere ^GIs a quiet christmas morning in the colorado ^Csnow
