Springtime In The Rockies

C
The twilight shadows deepen into night, dear
                                    G7
The city lights are gleaming on the snow

I sit alone beside the cheery fire, dear
                                       C
And dream the dreams from out the long ago

I fancy, it is springtime in the Rockies
                                 G7
The flowers and their colors are aflame

And every day I hear you softly saying
                                     C
I'll wait until the springtime comes again


[Chorus]


F
When it's springtime in the Rockies
                   G7
I'm coming home to you

Little sweetheart of the mountains
                         F
With your bonnie eyes so blue

Once again I'll say I love you
                             G7
While the birds sing all the day

When it's springtime in the Rockies
                   F
In the Rockies far away


[Verse]


C
I’ve kept your image guarded in my heart dear
                                     G7
I’ve kept my love for you as pure as dew

I’m longing for the time when I shall come dear
                                      C
Back to that dear old western home in you

I fancy it is springtime in the Rockies
                                        G7
The maple leaves, and bright blue skies appear

I hear you softly say, my queen of Maytown
                                          C
Dear springtime, you have come to meet me here


[Chorus]


F
When it’s springtime in the Rockies,
                   G7
I’m coming home to you

Little sweetheart of the mountains
                         F
With your bonnie eyes so blue

Once again, I’ll say I love you
                             G7
While the birds sing all the day

When it’s springtime in the Rockies,
                   F
In the Rockies far away


[Outro]


C
I fancy it is Springtime in the Rockies
                                 G7
The flowers and their colors are aflame

And every day, I hear you softly saying
                                     C
I’ll wait until the Springtime comes again
