Rocky Mountain High Uke tab by John Denver (Baritone Chords)

E                          F#m     D       B
He was born in the summer, of his twenty seventh year;
       E                          F#m     A
Coming home to a place he'd never been before
   E
He left yesterday behind him,
              F#m     D     B     
you might say he was born again
          E                      F#m    A
You might say he found a key for every door

        E                                F#m       D    B
When he first came to the mountains, his life was far away;
       E                F#m   A
On the road and hanging by a song
        E                               F#m      D      B
But the string's already broken, and he doesn't really care;
         E                  F#m                B
It keeps changing fast, and it don't last for long

        A        B              E
But the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
     A               B           E
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
    A               B            E             B    A
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby 
      B        E   F#m    A
Rocky Mountain high, Colorado

   E                                   F#m     D        B
He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below;
       E                    F#m      A
he saw everything as far as you can see
         E
And they say that he got crazy once,
       F#m       D         B
and he tried to touch the sun;
       E                 F#m       D   B
And he lost a friend but kept the memory

       E                            F#m      D       B
Now he walks in quiet solitude, the forests and the streams;
        E        F#m            A
seeking grace in every step he takes 
    E                                  F#m      D    B
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand;
    E             F#m         D        A
the serenity of a clear blue mountain lake

        A        B              E
And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
     A               B           E
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
A               B             E   B    A
talk to God and listen to the casual reply
      B        E   F#m    A

        E
Now his life is full of wonder,
        F#m          D          B
but his heart still knows some fear;
     E               F#m     D     A
of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
E               
Why they try to tear the mountains down,
   F#m         D      B
To bring in a couple more;
     E            F#m     D       A
more people, more scars upon the land

        A        B              E
And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
     A               B           E
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
A                B                E            B     A
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
      B        E   
Rocky Mountain high

        A        B              E
And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
     A               B           E
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
A                  B            E           A
Friends around the campfire and everybody's high
