Chorus: D Em A D She came from the mountains Rocky Mountains eagle-high Em A D She's from where the mountains lean up to the sky Em A D Now she's back among the Rockies where mountain thunders cry Em A D Now the wind from off the mountains wails a sad goodbye D Em Once in Colorado Springs at the foot of old Pike's Peak A D I met a Rocky Mountain girl to my soul her heart did speak D We went to tell her parents and an old grandmother said Em A D If you'll leave these mountains girl you'll wish that you were dead The next day I took her with me to my far-off Iowa home Way out on the flatlands where the mountain winds don't moan Each footstep we took was happy or at least it should've been But I would find her listening for that same lone mountain wind Chorus Months passed as fast as antelopes until one fatal dismal dawn I waked to see morning sun shine down on where she was gone I'd known that lately she'd been sad women sometimes get that way I hadn't guessed how much was wrong until that fatal day She had left the weeping letter homesick with mountain names She was somewhere in the Rockies and I knew I'd been to blame So now in Colorado Springs I wait near old Pike's Peak Where once I met a mountain girl that mountain girl I seek Chorus | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA D Em Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
