G                  G7
I saw Mary's face  in that little snow-flake

     C                      G
That fell at my feet on the ground

    D7                             C           G
And I heard my old friends in that last bitter wind

     A7                           D7
That blew back memories of my hometown


      G                  G7
I can see the old crowd  laughing so loud

       C                         G
Lord I miss all my loved ones so dear

         C                       G
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver

                 D7           G
I can almost see Houston from here


D7                               C                  G
I came here to build a dream and stayed to watch it die

A7                          D7
I was meant to fail I guess Lord knows how I tried

G                           C
Funny how much better I can see without my pride

         G          G7           C
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver

      G          D7           G
I can almost see Houston from here


                          C
I had some good friend in Denver town

           G
But lately they don’t come around

                  D7                 G
I guess good time crowds are all the same



But with this old thumb I'll get a ride

    C
And bid a lonely last goodbye

       G          G7           C
To the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver

          G          D7           G
For I can almost see Houston from here


                    G7           C
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver

      G          D7           G 
I can almost see Houston from here
