C Dm
Looking out the window of this hollywood hotel,
G C
Youd never know that it was christmas eve.
C Dm
The billboards and the neon took the place of silver bells,
G C
And the temperature is 84 degrees.
Am Em
I can hear the traffic on the crowded strip below
Am Em
As the palm trees poke their heads above the scene
C Dm
Theres not a single reindeer and it hardly ever snows,
G C
And santa drives a rolls royce limosine.
Am Em
But all along the rockies you can feel it in the air
Am Em
C DM
The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere
G C
Is a quiet christmas morning in the colorado snow
C Dm
I remember christmases when I was just a boy
G C
In the morning I would run to see the tree.
C Dm
And the carolers on the hillside sang their songs of christmas joy
G C
Well, I always thought they sang them just for me.
Am Em
Now the sun is setting in the california sky
Am Em
And I cant find the spirit anywhere
C Dm
So I think its time for me to tell los angeles goodbye
G C
Im going back home toook for christmas there
Am Em
But all along the rockies you can feel it in the air
Am Em
C DM
The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere
G C
Is a quiet christmas morning in the colorado snow
