************** HERE COMES THAT RAINBOW AGAIN **************
written and performed by Kris Kristofferson.
Verse 1: G The scene was a small roadside cafe 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: CG And the daylight grew heavy with thunder DG With the smell of the rains on the wind CG Ain't it just like a human DG Here comes that rainbow again
Verse 3:(A tone higher) A One truck driver called to the waitress E After the kids went outside
"Them candies ain't two for a penny" A "So what's it to you?" she replied
Verse 4:(Idem) A In silence they finished their coffee D And got up and nodded goodbye A She called,"Hey you left too much money" EA "So what's it to you?" they replied
Chorus bis:(Idem) DA And the daylight was heavy with thunder EA With the smell of the rains on the wind DA Ain't it just like a human EA Here comes that rainbow again
DA Ain't it just like a human EA Here comes that rainbow again
