D                        G              A 
Stepped off the train, looked into the sky 
        D                     G         A 
It was deepening blue as the moon was rising 
D                         G             A 
Had time to kill, and a letter to send her

One lonely boy on my first night in Denver 

           D             G     A  
I hit the sidewalks and kept moving 
D                              G          A 
Through late night streets, filled with music 
D                     G              A 
From dusk til dawn, tryin to forget her

D         A      D 
But I’ve got forever 
      G            A        Bm 
The world spins, Amen, the sun comes up again

It was my turn, a lesson I learned 
              A        D 
On my first night in Denver 

      D        G       A  
In a diner, I met a soldier 
      D                      G        A 
Just left his wife and kids back in Boulder 
      D                   G      A 
The facts of life for a young defender 
     D                             G      A       D 
He showed me their pictures on my first night in Denver

D         A      D 
But I’ve got forever

On my first night in Denver 

D                    G      A  
Back on the train, headed westbound 
   D                   G      A  
To new horizons, with what I know now 
     D              G         A 
The sun came up, I sent the letter 
      D                              G      A        D 
And wished her a good life, from my first night in Denver 

       G          A          Bm 
This heartbreak might take awhile for me to shake 
D         A      D 
But I’ve got forever 
      G            A        Bm
