Well it's a mighty lonesome feelin'
F                         C
  listenin' to the wind a-howlin'
F                           C      C/b   Am
  watchin' raindrops come a-fallin'
       D7                    G(7)
to the pavement outside your door

        C  F         C
It's a fool I am for waitin'
F                         C
  for the sound of your returnin'
F                         C        C/b     Am
  for the sound of gentle breathin'
G7                   C
 footsteps 'cross the floor

F   G   C

Well I can't remain no longer
I'm headed out to Colorado
When the sun brings in the mornin'
I'll be leavin' on my way

Well the grass is growin' green there
a warm winds rollin' down the mountain
down inside some lonesome canyon
that's where I mean to stay

If you ever come to Denver
mama please don't try to find me
all you do is just remind me
of the way you let me down

Well dreams they're easily shattered
but ya got to go on livin'
maybe that's the reason 
I'm Colorado bound
