Bm E (4X)
Bm E
Colorado you made me love you
Bm E
So I'm putting you on trial
Bm E
For turning me against my own state
F#
To whom I've been so faithful
G
And loved exclusively for a while
Bm E
Like any affair of this kind
Bm E
It began so innocently
Bm E
You seduced me with your beauty
F#
But I a sucker for sensation
G
I found no resistance in me
F# A
I found no strength to leave her
Chorus:
D A D
Colorado must take the stand
A Bm G A D A
She has made an adulterer of a happily married man
D A D
Colorado's here for reprimand
A Bm G A D F# G A
She has made an adulterer of a happily married man
Verse:
My home state of Texas
Has never done anything
To deserve this kind of immoral treatment of
Lying and deception
All in the name of a summer fling, oh
I, a powerless man
I couldn't stand in the shadow
Of her mountains and expect to overcome
The joy of gratitude accompanied
By an indulgent glance
How could any red-blooded man look away?
Chorus
Bridge:
A
I can tell
D A
A
The lawyer that you hired is a
D A
Crook in disguise
E
You'll walk out of the courtroom
D
And find the nearest man
E
Yeah you and I both know
D
That a jury's gonna be leniant
A
On a good looking woman, yeah
Instrumental:

F# G F# A
Verse:
Colorado, raise your right hand
And look us all in the face
Vow to put an end to the torment
That you've spread around like butter
Never askin what it meant
To institute separation of man and state
And this parallelization disintegrates
Chorus
