(Guitar solo on Chorus chords)
My mind is filled with images
Of sawtoothed ridges
Where the snowmelt forms
Cold mountain creeks
Flowing through the valleys down below
I was standin’ ‘neath the pine trees
On a bed of wild grass
This place has captured me
Wildflowers I can see
There ain’t no place I’d rather be
Chorus:
Than Idaho, ohhhhhhhhhh
In Idaho, ohhhhhhhhhh
In Idaho, ohhhhhhhhhh
In Idaho
