         C                            G
They got married on a mountain top in Denver
       C                                G
Just a preacher and a few of their best friends
     Em                            Bm
They said I do, and then he gently kissed her
   C                                D
He whispered if I die tonight, I'll die a happy man

     C                          G
They made a lot of memories to- gether
     C                                G
They came back to that mountain every year
         Em                              Bm
With his head in her lap, he'd smile and tell her
C                         D
"Baby if I go before you, bring me right back here"

     G              Bm
On a cliff in Colo- rado,
    C                D                G
The story ends right where it all be- gan
C D    G              Bm
On a cliff in Colo- rado
     C            D         Em                  D/F#
With tears in her eyes, she said her last good- bye
    C             D            G
And let his ashes fly into the wind

     C                              G
Some say she heard his voice softly whisper
    C                              G
And followed it right out into the cold.
Em                               Bm
They all say that no one went up with her
    C                                                   D
But at the top they found two sets of footprints in the snow

     G              Bm
On a cliff in Colo- rado
    C                D                G
The story ends right where it all be- gan
C D    G              Bm
On a cliff in Colo- rado
     C            D         Em                  D/F#
With tears in her eyes, she said her last good- bye
    C                      D              G    D
And stepped right back in- to his arms a- gain

     G              Bm
On a cliff in Colo- rado
    C                D                G
The story ends right where it all be- gan
C D    G              Bm
On a cliff in Colo- rado
     C            D         Em                  D/F#
With tears in her eyes, she said her last good- bye
    C                      D              G    C G
And stepped right back in- to his arms a- gain
