Chords

[Verse 1]
D                             G       D
We were drinking like fish in Fraser, Colorado

A                         G                   D
At a bar called The Creek sittin' next to the tracks

D                      G              D
Two, three, four, hell five beers too many

A                              G        D
Don't know for sure but that's probably exact
[Verse 2]
D                      G             D
Some guy walked up and asked to play pool

A                                  G      D
I looked him up and down and said "yeah I guess"

D      G              D
Twenty dollars on the line

A                      G                      D
After that? Well, your guess is as good as my best
[Verse 3]
D                         G                      D
Stepped outside and met a girl as sweet as could be

A                 G                D
Snow in her hair, boots muddy like me

D                             G                D
She laughed when I told her I just lost twenty bucks

A                                    G          D
Said "whiskey'll do that when you're runnin' on luck"
[Verse 4]
D                                    G             D
We talked bout the mountains and the winter coming in

A                     G                         D
How Fraser feels like magic when the night airs thin

D                 G                  D
She stole my hat, spun around in the street

A                   G         D
RIght then I knew I was in so deep
[Verse 5]
D                           G           D
Train whistle echoed like a song in the dark

A                             G          D
Tail lights glowed red in the lot by the park

D                           G              D
She grabbed my hand, said, "come on, don't freeze"

A                                   G             D
And we danced in the snow up to our shins and our knees
[Verse 6]
D                        G                 D
We wondered through town underneath frozen stars

A                         G              D
Breath hanging heavy like smoke from the bars

D                                G      D
She said she lived her since she turned seventeen

A                        G                    D
Knows every twist in the roads and the spaces between
[Verse 7]
D                        G           D
Morning rolled in like a slow spoken truth

A                      G            D
Head pounding hard but smiling like youth

D                    G                D
I checked my wallet, yep twenty bucks gone

A                                   G          D
But her number was scribbled in the space just beyond
[Verse 8]
D                           G          D
And maybe we were drunk, or maybe just free

A                                G              D
Two strangers collidin' where we both needed to be

D                            G        D
The world felt small in that Colorado glow

A                           G          D
Just a boy and a girl and a dusting of snow
[Verse 9]
D                  G             D
Oh, Fraser nights, they hit just right

A                            G          D
Where the cold cuts deep and cards fall tight

D                                 G          D
Where you lose a little money and maybe your mind

A                           G          D
But you gain a story you'll tell for a lifetime
[Outro]
D                    G               D
Yeah, Fraser nights, they never play fair

A                                      G           D
But they leave you with something that follows you everywhere

D                     G            D
Fraser nights I still breathe that air
