Intro: G C 

         C                            G 
They got married on a mountain top in Denver 
       C                                G 
Just a preacher and a few of their best friends 
     Em                            Bm 
They said I do, and then he gently kissed her 
   C                                D 
He whispered if I die tonight, I'll die a happy man 

     C                          G 
They made a lot of memories to- gether 
     C                                G 
They came back to that mountain every year 
         Em                              Bm 
With his head in her lap, he'd smile and tell her 
C                         D 
"Baby if I go before you, bring me right back here" 

     G              Bm 
On a cliff in Colo- rado, 
    C                D                G 
The story ends right where it all be- gan 
C D    G              Bm 
On a cliff in Colo- rado 
     C            D         Em                  D/F# 
With tears in her eyes, she said her last good- bye 
    C             D            G 
And let his ashes fly into the wind 

     C                              G 
Some say she heard his voice softly whisper 
    C                              G 
And followed it right out into the cold. 
Em                               Bm 
They all say that no one went up with her 
    C                                                   D 
But at the top they found two sets of footprints in the snow 

     G              Bm 
On a cliff in Colo- rado 
    C                D                G 
The story ends right where it all be- gan 
C D    G              Bm 
On a cliff in Colo- rado 
     C            D         Em                  D/F# 
With tears in her eyes, she said her last good- bye 
    C                      D              G    D 
And stepped right back in- to his arms a- gain 

     G              Bm

    C                      D              G    C G 
And stepped right back in- to his arms a- gain
