Burrito Brothers     Colorado     written by  Rick Roberts

G   D  Em     G7     C           G    D
Hey Colorado  it was not so long ago^?
G D         Em       G7 C               G  G7
I left your mountain to try life on the road
        C                  G    G7      C               G   G7
Now I'm finished with that race it  was much too fast a pace
       C               G G7    C                   G     D  Em D
And I think I know my place Colorado I wanna  come home
G     D     Em    G7    C            G      D
There was a woman but I left her far behind
G  D         Em    G7       C            G   G7
I could have loved her if I only had the time
      C                 G G7     C              G   G7
But I stopped along the way just long enough to say
         C                     G G7
Lord I'd really really like to stay
       C                      G D Em D
But my lady knows I've got to go
Em D   C   G      Em        D    C     G
I  was too young  to   know what I've done
Em D   C  G               F     D7
I made my plans but I was wrong yes I was wrong
G    D    Em G7         C                 G         D
Hey Colorado  is it too late to change my mind
G    D         Em       G7      C              G   G7
I've done some thinking and I'm trying hard to find
C                     G        G7
The way to come back home
        C                 G     G7
Oh I've been so very long alone
          C                 G   G7    C                     G
Won't you take care of your own Colorado I think I'm coming home

D    A               D                     E          A      G
Cody Cody I hear you say I hear your voice calling me away
D7                                      G   E
I'm not afraid to think of what I might find
          D          A      G           D
I will be yours will you be mine
D              A                    D
We've all been young we've all been old
                     E            A       G
We've all been sheltered from the cold
D7                                             G         E
Come to my side and say what I think I already know
          D              A       G      D
I'm going away don't you want to go

SOLO

D              A                D
I remember the face that Harvey drew it was of a man
E                  A      G
That my eyes saw thru
D7                                    G       E
Come by my side before the evening is gone
              D          A     G            D
And see where else this body's flown
