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