Verse
D A D
Well I was born in a manger in Texas
G A
All the pintos and paints come round
D G D Bm
My days there were troubled and restless
D A D
All the bad news that I looked for, I found
D A D
My welcome wore thin down in Texas
G A
For reasons you probably know
D G D Bm
So I roped and I broke and I rambled too
D A D
To where the sage and the pinon grow
[Chorus]
D A D
Blue mountain, you're azure deep
G A
Blue mountain, your sides are steep
D G D Bm
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side
D A Bm
You stolen my love to keep
D A D
You stolen my love to keep
[Verse]
D A D
Now I chug with ol’ Attago Gordon
G A
I drink at the blue goose salooon
D G D Bm
And I dance all night with the mormon girls
D A D
Ride home our way lit by the moon
D A D
Here is a snake in the rainbow
G A
And here is the balsom and bow
D G D Bm
And here are the ladders of light up to heaven
D A D
But blue mountain is all I need now
[Chorus]
D A D
Blue mountain, you're azure deep
G A
Blue mountain, your sides are steep
D G D Bm
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side
D A Bm
You stolen my love to keep
D A D
You stolen my love to keep
[Verse]
D A D
Oh, what kind of cut purse is the evening
G A
To scatter her diamonds behind
D G D Bm
We're all given a first and a last love
D A D
And blue mountain will be both of mine
[Chorus]
D A D
Blue mountain, you're azure deep
G A
Blue mountain, your sides are steep
D G D Bm
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side
D A Bm
You stolen my love to keep
D A D
You stolen my love to keep
