Intro
Fm G# C# D# x2
[Verse 1]
Fm G#
That night in cold Colorado
C# D#
You told me more than you ought to
Fm
And I drank the nectar
G#
But not from the bottle
C# D#
The dazzle and glow of your eyes
Fm G#
You held my hand on the swing set
C# D#
Kind of treatment that kings get
Fm G#
You told me act more and think less
C# D#
Or lonely is all that I'll find
[Chorus]
Fm
Oh, come on now, honey
G#
And put down your books
C#
Let's go out for a while
D#
And get by on your looks
Fm
Hang the keys to our hut
G#
Somewhere high on the hook
C# D#
Ain't no ladder thats built yet can reach, oh
Fm G# C# D# x2
[Verse 2]
Fm G#
What good is your guard of roses
C# D#
Perched there in elеgant poses
Fm G#
A# good man who's lucky and knows it
C# D#
Who is handsome, and charming, and kind
Fm G#
When I comе back from the brink
C# D#
That poor man's station will sink
Fm G#
He'll become wretched as me
C# D#
He can borrow, but can't keep what's mine
[Chorus]
Fm
Oh, come on now, honey
G#
And put down your books
C#
Let's go out for a while
D#
And get by on your looks
Fm
Hang the keys to our hut
G#
Somewhere high on the hook
C# D#
Ain't no ladder thats built yet can reach
[Chorus]
Fm
Oh, come on now, honey
G#
And put down your books
C#
Let's go out for a while
D#
And get by on your looks
Fm
Hang the keys to our hut
G#
Somewhere high on the hook
C# D#
Ain't no ladder thats built yet can reach, oh
