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