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