I Can Almost See Houston From Here chords - Ronnie Milsap

Ronnie Milsap Lyrics




Recorded by Ronnie Milsap

G                  G7
I saw Mary's face  in that little snow-flake
     C                      G
That fell at my feet on the ground
    D7                             C           G
And I heard my old friends in that last bitter wind
     A7                           D7
That blew back memories of my hometown

      G                  G7
I can see the old crowd  laughing so loud
       C                         G
Lord I miss all my loved ones so dear
         C                       G
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver
                 D7           G
I can almost see Houston from here

D7                               C                  G
I came here to build a dream and stayed to watch it die
A7                          D7
I was meant to fail I guess Lord knows how I tried
G                           C
Funny how much better I can see without my pride
         G          G7           C
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver
      G          D7           G
I can almost see Houston from here


Next 3 lines spoken:
                          C
I had some good friend in Denver town
           G
But lately they don’t come around
                  D7                 G
I guess good time crowds are all the same


But with this old thumb I'll get a ride
    C
And bid a lonely last goodbye
       G          G7           C
To the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver
          G          D7           G
For I can almost see Houston from here

                    G7           C
From the cold Rocky Mountains of Denver
      G          D7           G 
I can almost see Houston from here
