[D] I guess he'd [C] rather be in [G] Colorado
He'd [D] rather spend [C] his time out [G] where the sky looks like a [D] pearl after [C] rain
Once [G] again I see him walking
Once [D] again I hear him talking
To the [Em] stars he makes
[C] And asking them to [G] flip us there
I [D] guess he'd rather [C] be in [G] Colorado
He'd [D] rather play [C] his banjo [G] in the morning when the [D] moon is [C] scarcely gone
In [G] the dawn the subway's coming
In the [D]
dawn I hear him humming
Some [Em] old song he wrote [C] of love in Boulder [G]
