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 Em
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 Em
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 Em
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side
G D Em
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 Em
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 Em
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 Em
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side
G D Em
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 Em
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 Em
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side
G D Em
You stolen my love to keep
G D G
You stolen my love to keep
