[Intro]
G Am D7 G
[Verse 1]
G Am
All the city lights, they burn outside our window
D7 G
With the fleeing of an autumn afternoon;
G Am
I'll she'd a tear if I look down upon our river
D7 G
Feeling close and knowing I'll be going soon.
Bm
I grew lonesome on the road
C
Until I met you here that night
Bm
We talked and drank some wine
C D7
And I was blinded in your light,
[Chorus]
G C Cmaj7 Am
But there's a lady in Montana
D7 G
And I love her, so I must be going home
[Verse 2]
G Am
I should have kept on going when I had the mind to;
D7 G
I should have left you here so many times before.
G Am
Now your eyes reflect a face that's quite unknowing
D7 G
If this pain inside is worth the open door.
Bm
But the highway's ringing clear,
C
And the morning sun is low
Bm
Blue November winds are blowing,
C D7
I must leave before the snow
[Chorus]
G C Cmaj7 Am
Cause there's a lady in Montana
D7 G
And I love her, so I must be going home.
[Verse 3]
G Am
There were many times I wanted to forget her
D7 G
In the early morning hours here with you,
G Am
But my heart, it lies among the Rocky Mountains
D7 G
With a lady there who's always been so true.
Bm
I could hold you here forever,
C
I could try and find a way
Bm
We could spend our time together,
C D7
But it's morning, and I pray
[Chorus]
G C Cmaj7 Am
That there's a lady in Montana
D7 G
And I love her, so I must be going home.
