(Verse 1)
D                                                C
Four thousand miles I wandered out there for a drop of love
              G
Remember we soared like the doves
            D
Now we are strangers

So I stumbled back home like a stone
                C
Once I stood straight and tall
                 G                           D
These days I'm building walls surrounded by danger

(Chorus)
      C
Hey Colorado
              G                  D
Don't tell me what I know about life itself
      C
Hey Colorado
            G
Wasn't too long ago
                D
Took all your letters down
                     C
Passed bits of your heart around
                  G
Placed them back safe and sound
  G   G  G    D            GGG D   GGG D 
Back on the lovers' shelf

(Verse 2)
D
Buddha and Jesus and Gandhi
                  C
The girl sitting next to me
              G
All say the same you see
                   D  G  D
Let's talk about love
                                             C
Look at me pour out my soul in some other's kitchen now
                  G
You got what you wanted somehow
           D
You wanted blood


(Chorus)
      C
Hey Colorado
              G                  D
Don't tell me what I know about life itself
      C
Hey Colorado
            G
Wasn't too long ago
                D
Took all your letters down
                     C
Passed bits of your heart around
                  G
Placed them back safe and sound
              G   D       GGG D   GGG D
Back on the lovers' shelf

(Verse 3)
     F                                              D
Your unconscious streams like mythical dreams most appeal to me
      C
What lies deep below in the depths of your soul's what I 
 G
fail to see
GGG         D
It's all a mystery
GGG         D
It's all a mystery


(Chorus)
      C
Hey Colorado
              G                  D
Don't tell me what I know about life itself
      C
Hey Colorado
            G
Wasn't too long ago
                D
Took all your letters down
                     C
Passed bits of your heart around
                  G
Placed them back safe and sound
              GGG   D       GGG D   GGG D
Back on the lovers' shelf
