We'll move up into the mountains so far we can't be found

Please come to Denver"

I still need to lean to

Someone I can sing to
[Verse]

"Please come to A to live forever

California life alone is just too hard to build

There's some stars that fell from the sky, livin' up on the hill
G
Please come to A "

There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me

'Cause I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee"
Am G/B C D Em
Yes, I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee"
