Colorado Christmas chords by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
Guitar chords with lyrics
Looking out the window of this hollywood hotel,
G C
Youd never know that it was christmas eve.
C Dm
The billboards and the neon took the place of silver bells,
G C
And the temperature is 84 degrees.
Am Em
I can hear the traffic on the crowded strip below
Am Em
As the palm trees poke their heads above the scene
C Dm
Theres not a single reindeer and it hardly ever snows,
G C
And santa drives a rolls royce limosine.
Am Em But all along the rockies you can feel it in the air Am Em From telluride to boulder down below C Dm The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere G C Is a quiet christmas morning in the colorado snow C Dm I remember christmases when I was just a boy G C In the morning I would run to see the tree. C Dm And the carolers on the hillside sang their songs of christmas joy G C Well, I always thought they sang them just for me. Am Em Now the sun is setting in the california sky Am Em And I cant find the spirit anywhere C Dm So I think its time for me to tell los angeles goodbye G C Im going back home toook for christmas there Am Em But all along the rockies you can feel it in the air Am Em From telluride to boulder down below C Dm The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere G C Is a quiet christmas morning in the colorado snow
