Misc Traditional – Rainbow Scout Reservation Camp Hymn (Guitar)

   D                          A            D
Oh Rainbow, dear Rainbow, I’d just like to say

 D                          A            D
As I pitch my tent in the warm light of day

     Bm              G             A          D
From Whippoorwill to White Pine to old Forest Glade

   D                         A                D
Oh Rainbow, dear rainbow, in my heart you’ll stay

     D                      A           D
As I paddle down long lake, the blue heron flies

    D             A             D
And sings to me gently of all it does spy

    Bm         G            A          D
The forests of backside with waters so pure

 D          G           A                 D
So Onward I travel with strokes that are sure

     D                      A           D
As I sit by the campfire with all of my friends

        D                             A             D
We sing songs and swap stories of the places we’ve been

         Bm           G            A          D
But it’s back here to rainbow we’ll always return

 D                G           A             D
To share with our fellows the lessons we’ve learned

     D                        A               D
And when the time comes and I must leave this place

        Bm       G            A           D
Like an angel of god that has fallen from grace

        D                       A            D
And the totem poles that welcome me beckon to stay

  Bm            G                A         D
I know my heart will though I’ve gone far away
