Here Comes That Rainbow Again
Verse 1:
G
The scene was a small roadside café
D
The waitress was sweeping the floor
Two truck drivers drinking their coffee
G
And two Okie kids by the door
Verse 2
“How much are them candies?” they asked her
D
“How much have you got?” she replied
“We’ve only a penny between us”
G
“Them’s two for a penny” she lied
Chorus
C G
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
D G
With the smell of the rains on the wind
C G
Ain’t it just like a human
D G
Here comes that rainbow again

“So what’s it to you?” she replied

“So what’s it to you?” they replied
