When DI was nineteen I threw my Astuff in the car
Headed Gup to the Rockies, to get a Djob at this bar
Selling beer Dto the locals, just Abarely getting by
On the Emtips from the rich kids, they?re Aowin? daddy's dime
BmBut from the Gmoment she walked in one night
BmI knew I'd Gbe all right Ain
[Chorus]
Tel- Dluride, it?s F#m/C#snow falling down
BmI was waking up in that Gsleepy little town
DIn her eyes my F#m/C#world came so alive
I Bmnever will forget the Gmoment she arrived
In DTellurideA  Bm  G  
We Dspent that whole winter tangled Aup by a fire
Cast- Ging shadows on the cabin wall, Ddrowning in desire
Con- Dfessing all our secrets and Alaughing out loud
So Emhigh up on that mountain, I thought we'd Anever come down
BmIt was a Gdream we were living in
BmAnd I was the Ghappiest I'd ever Abeen
[Chorus]
DTelluride, it?s F#m/C#snow falling down
BmWaking up with her in that Gsleepy little town
DIn her eyes, my F#m/C#world came so alive
I Bmnever will forget all Gthose sleepless nights
In DTelluride, Awhoa- Bmoh, yeah- yGeah,A  
It Aended just Bmlike a Gmovie Ascene
And AI had to Bmplay the Gpart
Of the Alover who Bmstood there and Gwatched her leave
Emme with the frozen Aheart
[Chorus]
In DTelluride, the F#m/C#snow falling down
BmStanding there alone in that Gsleepy little town
DIn her eyes, my F#m/C#world came so alive
I Bmnever will forget the Gday she said goodbye
DTelluride, the F#m/C#snow falling down
BmI was waking up with her in that Gsleepy little town
DIn her eyes, my F#m/C#world came so alive
I Bmnever will forget all Gthose sleepless nights
