Blue Mountain
By Bob Weir


Chorus:

C                     G       C
Blue mountain, you're azure deep

F                                G
Blue mountain, your sides are steep

C                    F         C          Am
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side

       C       G       Am
You stolen my love to keep

       C       G        C
You stolen my love to keep


Verse:

              C       G          C
Well I was born in a manger in Texas

        F                       G
All the pintos and paints come round

        C           F             C       Am
My days there were troubled and restless

            C            G              C
All the bad news that I looked for, I found



     C          G            C
My welcome wore thin down in Texas

        F                  G
For reasons you probably know

     C           F            C           Am
So I roped and I broke and I rambled too

      C                   G     C
To where the sage and the pinon grow


Chorus:

      C                G      C
Blue mountain, you're azure deep

      F                       G
Blue mountain, your sides are steep

     C               F          C        Am
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side

       C       G       Am
You stolen my love to keep

       C       G        C
You stolen my love to keep


Verse:

              C       G          C
Now I chug with ol’ Attago Gordon

        F                       G
I drink at the blue goose salooon

        C           F             C       Am
And I dance all night with the mormon girls

      C            G              C
Ride home our way lit by the moon


  C       G          C
Here is a snake in the rainbow

        F                       G
And here is the balsom and bow

        C        F          C       Am
And here are the ladders of light up to heaven

      C            G              C
But blue mountain is all I need now


Chorus:

      C                G      C
Blue mountain, you're azure deep

      F                       G
Blue mountain, your sides are steep

     C               F          C        Am
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side

       C       G       Am
You stolen my love to keep

       C       G        C
You stolen my love to keep


Verse:

           C       G          C
Oh, what kind of cut purse is the evening

        F                   G
To scatter her diamonds behind

        C        F          C       Am
We're all given a first and a last love

      C            G              C
And blue mountain will be both of mine


Chorus:

      C                G      C
Blue mountain, you're azure deep

      F                       G
Blue mountain, your sides are steep

     C               F          C        Am
Blue mountain with a horse head on your side

       C       G       Am
You stolen my love to keep

       C       G        C
You stolen my love to keep
