[ti:Rocky Mountain High]
[ar:John Denver]
[00:11.817]He  was  born  in  the  summer  of  his 27th  year
[00:17.917]Comin'home  to  a  place  he'd  never  been  before
[00:23.868]He  left  yesterday  behind  him,you  might  say  he  was  born  again
[00:29.819]You  might  say  he  found  a  key  for  every  door
[00:35.819]When  he  first  came  to  the  mountains  his  life  was  far  away
[00:41.669]On  the  road  and  hangin'by  a  song
[00:47.720]But  the  string's  already  broken  and  he  doesn't  really  care
[00:53.670]It  keeps  changin'fast  and  it  don't  last  for  long
[00:59.522]But  the  Colorado  rocky  mountain  high
[01:05.222]I've  seen  it  rainin'fire  in  the  sky
[01:11.372]The  shadow  from  the  starlight  is  softer  than  a  lullabye
[01:21.424]Rocky  mountain  high
[01:26.924]Rocky  mountain  high
[01:33.525]He  climbed  cathedral  mountains,he  saw  silver  clouds  below
[01:39.476]He  saw  everything  as  far  as  you  can  see
[01:45.127]And  they  say  that  he  got  crazy  once  and  he  tried  to  touch  the  sun
[01:51.77]And  he  lost  a  friend  but  kept  his  memory
[01:56.727]Now  he  walks  in  quiet  solitude  the  forest  and  the  streams
[02:02.778]Seeking  grace  in  every  step  he  takes
[02:08.528]His  sight  has  turned  inside  himself  to  try  and  understand
[02:14.478]The  serenity  of  a  clear  blue  mountain  lake
[02:19.979]And  the  Colorado  rocky  mountain  high
[02:25.979]I've  seen  it  rainin'fire  in  the  sky
[02:31.830]You  can  talk  to  God  and  listen  to  the  casual  reply
[02:41.883]Rocky  mountain  high
[02:47.384]Rocky  mountain  high
[02:53.884]Now  his  life  is  full  of  wonder  but  his  heart  still  knows  some  fear
[02:59.835]Of  a  simple  thing  he  cannot  comprehend
[03:05.686]Why  they  try  to  tear  the  mountains  down  to  bring  in  a  couple  more
[03:11.538]More  people,more  scars  upon  the  land
[03:17.960]And  the  Colorado  rocky  mountain  high
[03:23.160]I've  seen  it  rainin'fire  in  the  sky
[03:29.111]I  know  he'd  be  a  poorer  man  if  he  never  saw  an  eagle  fly
[03:38.862]Rocky  mountain  high
[03:42.512]It's  Colorado  rocky  mountain  high
[03:48.162]I've  seen  it  rainin'fire  in  the  sky
[03:54.513]Friends  around  the  campfire  and  everybody's  high
[04:03.913]Rocky  mountain  high
[04:09.514]Rocky  mountain  high
[04:15.415]Rocky  mountain  high
[04:21.15]Rocky  mountain  high
[04:26.916]Rocky  mountain  high
[04:32.668]Rocky  mountain high
