1. He was born in the summer of his twenty-seventh year,

D                                           G              - A

coming home to a place he'd never been before.

D                                                 Em              G        A

He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again,

D                                               G - A

you might say he found the key to every door.

 

D                                               Em        G       A

2. When he first came to the mountains,  his life was far away,

D                                  G  - A

on the road and hanging by a song.

D                                            Em        G       A

Well the string`s already broken and he doesn't really care,

D                                                G - A

it changes fast and it don't last too long.

 

G            A                        D

But The Colorado Rocky Mountain High,

G                   A              D

I've seen it raining fire in the sky.

G                        A              D                        G  ~

Shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby,

D - G - A                              D - G - A

Rocky Mountain High,          Rocky Mountain High.

3. Well he climbed cathedral mountains,

Em       G         D

he saw silver clouds below,

D                                           G - A

he saw everything as far as you can see.

D                        ^                          Em       G             A

They say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun,

D                                              G - A

he lost a friend but keep the memory.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

D                                                  Em        G             A

D                               G  -  A

seeking grace in every step he takes.

D                                                 Em       G        A

His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand,

D                                             G -  A

the serenity of clear blue mountain lakes.

 

G             A                       D

And The Colorado Rocky Mountain high,

G                   A              D

I've seen it raining fire in the sky.

Talk to God and listen to the casual reply.

Rocky Mountain High,        Rocky Mountain High.

5. Now his life if full of wonder,

Em           G              A

but his heart still knows some fear,

D                                            G  - A

of the simple things he cannot comprehend.

D

Why they try and tear the mountains down

Em   G        A              D                                     G   - A

to bring in a couple more, more people, more scars upon the land.

 

G           A                       D

And The Colorado Rocky Mountain high,

G                   A             D

I've seen it raining fire in the sky.

G                      A                        D                             G   ~

You know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle  fly.

D              G            A                        D

Rocky Mountain high, the Colorado Rocky Mountain high,

G                   A             D

I've seen it raining fire in the sky.

Friends around the campfire and everybody is high.
