[Verse 1]
D Em A D
We were up before the sunrise, loaded up horses, we were gone
D Em A D
Crossed the La Veta pass to that sweet St Luis valley, rolling on
G D Bm
Thats Wolf Creek up ahead 10,000 feet of mountain, we'll be there by noon
D A D
We're hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon
[Verse 2]
D Em A D
Go straight on to Durango toward Four Corners, that old Ford was making ground
D Em A D
We stretched the horses legs in Teec Nos Pos and watched that desert sun go down
G D Bm
We made camp out in the nations and we listened to the ancestors tunes
D A D
We're hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon
[Verse 3]
Bm A
We called the boss in Wickenberg just to let em know when we'd be rolling in
Bm A
Fed the horses, fed ourselves, picked some guitar while the firelight grew dim
D G D Bm
Then we passed the bottle around and watched the night time turn to morning way too soon
D A D
We're hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
D Em A D
Sing praises to these horses they've hauled a thousand dudes to the hills
D Em A D
They'd take us to the rivers where the voice of Mother Nature won't be still
G D Bm
Well I ain't no big time banker but I know exactly what I should be doing
D A D
That's hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon
[Outro]
D A D A D
That's hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon
