INTRO: G C D G C D G G6


VERSE 1 


G                      C     
Truth and consequences close behind us 
G       D                G   G6
take the rockies by surprise 
G                 C
and old coyotes warn early mornings of 
G    D             G    G6 
wild horses in desquise 


CHORUS


D                 E-            C
won't you take me through the mountains
 G          D        G
towards the oregon trial 
D                  E-
and say goodbye to Colorado 
G             D           G
front my heart I wish you well 


( Repeat intro )


VERSE 2


we missed the magpie so we took a long drive 

could not get far enough away 

tracked through the deep snow and turned up the radio 

and toasted outside santa fe 


CHORUS 


won't you take me 

through the mountains 

towards the oregon line. 

say goodbye to Colorado 

fare the well good friend of mine 


( Repeat intro )


VERSE 3


woke up in Idaho and it was twenty three below 

we walked out as far as we could stand 

I watched you in your black coat as you photographed the hills a rollin 

count to three and when we ran
