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