Lyrics - From Denver to L. a. by Elton John

Written by francis lai and hal sharper
Released as a us single in 1970
Issued on the games soundtrack
If
I say goodbye it’ll grieve you
Denver means the whole world to you
Girl it breaks me up just to leave you
But
I got things that
I gotta do
Got to take my guitar
With one break
I’m a star
Girl
I’ll love you forever more
But today
I’ve got to make my way
From denver to l.a.
Girl
I know that you’ll make me stay
But today
I’ve got to make my way
From denver to l.a.
There’s a whole new life to be led there
That’s the place that
I gotta be
Guys are making mountains of bread there
Reckon it could happen to me
Lots of guys make the grade
Just one break and
I may
And
I’ll bring it on home
