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