[Intro]

Am
F    Dm
G7   C
 
 
[Verse 1]
    C
The sunlight slipped right through the blinds I'd carefully pulled down
Am
Dragged me from my dreaming and I woke up on the ground
    F                                 Dm
The phone was ringing by my head just like I knew it would
G7                           C
News from Colorado's never good
 
 
[Verse 2]
   C
My brother stole another car, they're holding him downtown
Am
Sister's telling everyone he's in the army now
F                              Dm
Mama only says the things that Daddy says she should
G7                           C
News from Colorado's never good
 
 
[Violin Solo]
C
Am
F    Dm
G7   C
 
 
[Bridge]
F                         G7
How'd I get so far away? Seems like only yesterday
  C                                 F
I took my first few steps out on my own
                             Dm
Lookin' in the mirror now, I see a thousand miles and somehow
G7
Colorado doesn't feel like home
 
 
[Verse 3]
C
Ain't no way to go back even if I wanted to
     Am
It'd only be a waste of time and there's nothing I can do
F                                  Dm
Breaks my heart but somehow I have always understood
G7                           C
News from Colorado's never good
 
 
[Outro]
C                  Am
