  A                  Amaj7  A7              D 
I came here from the city a thousand miles away. 
  Dm              A/E                     Bm7            E 
I came just for a little while you know I never meant to stay. 
  A                Amaj7            A7               D 
I meant to take my pleasure, have a good time and be gone.

But I fell in love with a lady, now I sing a mountain song.

I listened to the music of the night wind in the pines. 
     Dm             A/E           Bm7           E 
I've seen the quiet splendor of a field of columbine. 
  A                Amaj7         A7               D 
I skied on crystal pathways to a mountain peak so tall, 
      Dm                A/E              Bm7             E 
and I walked the mighty summits with the one who made it all. 

      D                   E                C#m7            F#m 
And I fell in love with a lady 'cause I've seen her at her best. 
         Bm7                 E                        A          A7 
And I've walked her wild and rugged paths through her open wilderness. 
          D           E                   C#m7          F#m 
And now I never can betray her, steal her riches and be gone, 
                Bm7                 E               Bm7    E        A

Now people come from everywhere to see what they can find. 
    Dm                A/E           Bm7                  E 
And some take lots of pictures, and some just take their time. 
              A                 Amaj7       A7                 D 
But there are some who take her beauty that can't be bought or sold 
         Dm            A/E         Bm7               E 
And they think of only money while destroying wealth untold.
