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
