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