COLORADO IN SONG

We are proud to serve Colorado with our improv comedy, game shows and murder mystery dinners for entertainment and team building options for private parties and corporate events. We love Colorado and the fact that such a great song was created with the state as the focus.


Our site is really focused on our corporate events and private parties. We bring you this page to help get out the lyrics to this great song. We help infuse this spirit into our entertainment. Ask us how we can personalize our events to the Colorado.


Seldom does a song so eloquently speak to the image of a state as seen by the rest of the country. When John Denver sang Rocky Mountain High, it evoked the sense of the Rockies and the natural beauty of The Centennial State. Then again, his last name is Denver. There should be no surprise that he would sing for his love of the state.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH

BY JOHN DENVER


He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Coming home to a place he'd never been before
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again
You might say he found a key for every door

When he first came to the mountains his life was far away
On the road and hanging by a song
But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care
It keeps changing fast and it don't last for long

But the Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby
Rocky mountain high (Colorado)

He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below
He saw everything as far as you can see
And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun
And he lost a friend but kept his memory

Now he walks in quiet solitude the forest and the streams
Seeking grace in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake

And the Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply
Rocky mountain high

Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more
More people, more scars upon the land

And the Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
Rocky mountain high

It's Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
Friends around the campfire and everybody's high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
