(Chasin' the rainbow 'til the day that I die - ie - ie -ie)
[Verse 1]
                            E
Rain starts to fall and the sun fades away

D                       A
Mem'ries start callin'  another blue day

                           E
It's hard to keep tryin' to reach for a star

     D                     A
With no-one beside me, but my old guitar
[Chorus]
      D          E          D
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry

Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die
[Verse 2]
                       E
Just thinkin' over the years of my life

   D                      A
My many proud moments, my struggles and strife

                                 E
The days of good fortune, when a good gal was mine

    D                      A
How foolish of me, to have left her behind
[Chorus]
      D          E          D
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry

[Break] | D | E | D | D | | D | A | E | A | [Verse 3]
                              E
My mind keeps a-wonderin' for things in my past

    D                             A
The money I made, that I couldn't make last

                               E
The vows that I've broken, the lies that I've told

   D                           A
Mistakes that I've made, in my quest for life's gold

But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry

          A            E              A
Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die
[Verse 4]
                         E
How often I think of the things I have missed

        D                       A
All the girls that I knew, that I never kissed

                                  E
Of the dares that were offered, I never did try

     D                       A
Lost many good mem'ries, how foolish was I
[Chorus]
      D          E          D
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry

          A            E              A
Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die
[Break] | D | E | D | D | | D | A | E | A | [Verse 5]
                                 E
The prairies and mountains, I've left them behind

    D                     A
I'm addin' the mileage to this life of mine

                           E
From old California to the cold eastern sea

     D                             A
Then back through the Southland to old Tennessee
[Chorus]
      D          E          D
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry

          A            E              A
Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die
[Outro] | D | A | E | A |
