G                  G7 
I saw Mary's face  in that little snow-flake 

     C                      G 
That fell at my feet on the ground 

    D7                             C           G 
And I heard my old friends in that last bitter wind 

     A7                           D7 
That blew back memories of my hometown 


      G                  G7 
I can see the old crowd  laughing so loud 

       C                         G 
Lord I miss all my loved ones so dear 

         C                       G 
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver 

                 D7           G 
I can almost see Houston from here 


D7                               C                  G 
I came here to build a dream and stayed to watch it die 

A7                          D7 
I was meant to fail I guess Lord knows how I tried 

G                           C 
Funny how much better I can see without my pride 

         G          G7           C 
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver 

      G          D7           G 
I can almost see Houston from here 


                          C 
I had some good friend in Denver town 

           G 
But lately they don’t come around 

                  D7                 G 
I guess good time crowds are all the same 



But with this old thumb I'll get a ride 

    C 
And bid a lonely last goodbye 

       G          G7           C 
To the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver 

          G          D7           G 
For I can almost see Houston from here 


                    G7           C 
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver 

      G          D7           G  
I can almost see Houston from here
