Rocky Mountain High (John Denver)
He was
born in the summer of his
27th
year,
Comin'
home to a place he'd never
been before.
He left
yesterday be
hind him, you might
say he was born a
gain,
You might
say he found a key for every
door.
When he
first came to the mountain his
life was far a
way,
On the
road and hangin' by a
song,
But the
string's already
broken and he
doesn't really
care,
It keeps
changin' fast and it don't last for
long.
But the
Colorado
Rocky Mountain
high, I've
seen it rainin'
fire in the
sky.
The
shadow from the
starlight is
softer than a lulla
by.
Rocky Mountain
high, Colo
rado, Rocky Mountain
high, Colo
rado.
He
climbed cathedral mountains, he saw
silver clouds be
low,
He saw
everything as far as you can
see.
And they
say that he got
crazy once and he
tried to touch the
sun,
And he
lost a friend, but kept his memo
ry.
Now he walks in quiet solitude the
forests and the
streams,
Seeking
grace in every step he
takes.
His
sight has turned in
side himself to
try and under
stand
The
serenity of a clear blue mountain
lake.
And the
Colorado
Rocky Mountain
high, I've
seen it rainin'
fire in the
sky.
You can
talk to God and
listen to the
casual re
ply.
Rocky Mountain
high, Colo
rado, Rocky Mountain
high, Colo
rado.
Now his
life is full of wonder, but his
heart still know some
fear
Of a
simple thing he cannot compre
hend.
Why they
try to tear the
mountain down to
bring in a couple
more,
More
people, more scars upon the
land.
And the
Colorado
Rocky Mountain
high, I've
seen it rainin'
fire in the
sky.
I
know he'd be a
poorer man if he
never saw an eagle
fly.
Rocky Mountain
high, it's a
Colorado
Rocky Mountain
high,
I've
seen it rainin'
fire in the
sky,
friends around the
campfire and
ever
ybody's high,
Rocky Mountain
high, Colo
rado, Rocky Mountain
high, Colo
rado.
