[Intro]
B5 A5 E5 B5
[Verse 1]
Em D C G D/F# Through northern lights on back streets Em D G C I told the coachman, "Just drive me on G D C G D/F# It's the same old destination Em D G C But a different world to sing upon" Am D So he threw back his head and he counted Em A5 G I jumped out about five to nine A5 D C A5 G And I waved at the stage door-keeper A5 E5 B Said, "Mister, get me to the stage on time"
[Chorus 1]
G D G C Oh, but the rain wasn't made of water D G D G D And the snow didn't have a place in the sun Em D G C D So I slipped behind a rainbow E5 B And waited till the show had done
[Verse 2]
Em D C G D/F# I packed my ammunition Em D G C Inside the crowd was shouting, "Encore" G D C G D/F# But I had a most funny feeling Em D G C It wasn't me they were shouting for Am D So when the tall dark lady smiled at me Em A5 G I said, "Oh, baby let us go for a ride" A5 D C A5 G And we came upon two drinks or four A5 E5 B And popped them oh so neatly inside
[Chorus 2]
G D G C Oh, and the rain wasn't made of water D G D G D And the snow didn't have a place in the sun Em D G C D So it slipped behind a rainbow E5 B And laid there until we had done

[Verse 3]
Am D Let me pack you deep in my suitcase Em A5 G For there's sure to be room for two A5 D C A5 G Or you can drive me to the airplane A5 E5 B But don't let me catch those rainbow blues
[Chorus 3]
G D G C Oh, and the rain wasn't made of water D G D G D And the snow didn't have a place in the sun Em D G C D So it slipped behind a rainbow E5 B And laid there until we had done G D G C Oh, and the rain wasn't made of water D G D G D And the snow didn't have a place in the sun Em D G C D So it slipped behind a rainbow E5 B A5 E5 B And laid there until we had done
