He was born in the sum-mer
of his twen-ty sev-enth year,
com-in' home to a place he'd nev-er
been be-fore.
He left yes-ter-day be-hind him,
you might say he was born a-gain.
You might say he found a key for ev-'ry door.
When he first came to the moun-tains
his life was far a-way,
on the road and hang-in' by a song.
But the string's al-read-y bro-ken
and he does-n't real-ly care.
It keeps chang-in' fast
and it don't last for long.
But the Col-or-a-do Rock-y Moun-tain High
I've seen it rain-in' fire in the sky.
The sha-dow from the star-light
is soft-er than a lul-la-by.
Rock-y Moun-tain High, Rock-y Moun-tain High.
