Verse 1 I used to chase them snowcaps Under Colorado skies Listening to John Denver Singin’ soft and high I traded plains for pine trees Thought I found my soul In a cabin full of vinyl And a heart that needed home ⸻ Verse 2 But life don’t read your roadmap It don’t care what you planned Next thing I know I’m floating With a mic stand in my hand Telling jokes for strangers On a rolling neon sea From the Rockies to the tropics That’s where fate delivered me ⸻ Chorus Now I’m living somewhere in between John Denver and Jimmy Buffett dreams Got mountain air in my memory And saltwater in my veins It’s a Rocky Mountain high tide life Snow boots traded for flip-flop nights Singing country roads with a blender hum And a sunset full of rum ⸻ Verse 3 I still hear “Take Me Home” Every time the waves roll in But now it’s steel drums playing Where the fiddles should’ve been I went from Aspen mornings To margarita moons From quiet stars in silence To late-night comedy rooms ⸻ Chorus Yeah I’m living somewhere in between John Denver and Jimmy Buffett dreams Got altitude in my history And an ocean breeze on me It’s a Changes in Latitude life With a Rocky Mountain state of mind Trading snow for a tan and a stage And getting paid to drift and play ⸻ Bridge (fun, clever hook section) A pirate looks at skiing… from a barstool on the deck Rocky Mountain high tide… ain’t figured it out yet Cheeseburgers in Aspen… with coconut on the side Country roads meet ocean waves… and somehow it feels right ⸻ Final Chorus (lift it emotionally) Yeah I’m living somewhere in between Who I was and who I dreamed From Denver nights to Caribbean skies Man, what a wild damn ride It’s a Rocky Mountain high tide song Don’t know where I went right or wrong But I found a life that lets me roam And somehow… still feels like home ⸻ Outro (spoken or sung soft) Sunshine on my shoulders… And salt upon my skin… Guess I didn’t lose the mountains… I just found ’em… again
