Intro
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
She came from the mountains, Rocky Mountains eagle-high
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
She's from where the mountains lean up to the sky
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Now she's back among the Rockies where mountain thunders cry
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Now the wind from off the mountains wails a sad goodbye
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Once, in Colorado Springs, at the foot of old Pike's Peak
ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I met a Rocky Mountain girl, to my soul, her heart did speak
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
We went to tell her parents and an old grandmother said,
ch]A7[/ch
"If you leave these mountains, girl, you'll wish that you were dead"
ch]D[/ch
The next day, I took her with me to my far-off Iowa home
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Way out on the flatlands, where the mountain winds don't moan
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Each footstep we took was happy, or at least, it should've been
ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
But I would find her listening for that same lone mountain wind
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
She came from the mountains, Rocky Mountains eagle-high
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
She's from where the mountains lean up to the sky
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Now she's back among the Rockies where mountain thunders cry
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Now the wind from off the mountains wails a sad goodbye
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Months passed as fast as antelopes until one fatal dismal dawn
ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I woke to see the morning sun shine down on where she was gone
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I'd known that lately she'd been sad, women sometimes get that way
ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I hadn't guessed how much was wrong until that fatal day
ch]D[/ch
She had left a weeping letter homesick with mountain names
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
She was somewhere in the Rockies and I knew I'd been to blame
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
So now, in Colorado Springs, I wait near old Pike's Peak
ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Where once, I met a mountain girl, that mountain girl I seek
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
She came from the mountains, Rocky Mountains eagle-high
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
She's from where the mountains lean up to the sky
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Now she's back among the Rockies where mountain thunders cry
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Now the wind from off the mountains wails a sad goodbye
