Intro
Dm F A# C x2
[Verse 1]
Dm F
That night in cold Colorado
A# C
You told me more than you ought to
Dm
And I drank the nectar
F
But not from the bottle
A# C
The dazzle and glow of your eyes
Dm F
You held my hand on the swing set
A# C
Kind of treatment that kings get
Dm F
You told me act more and think less
A# C
Or lonely is all that I'll find
[Chorus]
Dm
Oh, come on now, honey
F
And put down your books
A#
Let's go out for a while
C
And get by on your looks
Dm
Hang the keys to our hut
F
Somewhere high on the hook
A# C
Ain't no ladder thats built yet can reach, oh
Dm F A# C x2
[Verse 2]
Dm F
What good is your guard of roses
A# C
Perched there in elеgant poses
Dm F
G good man who's lucky and knows it
A# C
Who is handsome, and charming, and kind
Dm F
When I comе back from the brink
A# C
That poor man's station will sink
Dm F
He'll become wretched as me
A# C
He can borrow, but can't keep what's mine
[Chorus]
Dm
Oh, come on now, honey
F
And put down your books
A#
Let's go out for a while
C
And get by on your looks
Dm
Hang the keys to our hut
F
Somewhere high on the hook
A# C
Ain't no ladder thats built yet can reach
[Chorus]
Dm
Oh, come on now, honey
F
And put down your books
A#
Let's go out for a while
C
And get by on your looks
Dm
Hang the keys to our hut
F
Somewhere high on the hook
A# C
Ain't no ladder thats built yet can reach, oh
Dm F A# C x4 Em
