[Verse 1]
C C
The angel Moroni asleep in the carport
C F
With the newspaper under his arm
G G
It seems I was late to deliver his car keys
G C
So it looks like we are staying behind
C
Was Lucifer bashful
C F
In hiding his face from the Lord
G
Dear Jesus, forgive me
G C
I'm only doing as I was told
C
For as it is written
C F
I will soon one day face my own fire
G
This world will go with me
G C
If I can just get them all on my side
[Chorus]
F G C
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
F G C
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
[Verse 3]
C
I was late to the parlor
C
When the wind it blew forward
C F
And demanded we get out of town
G
So me and Moroni
G G
Took the keys to the steeple
G C
And awaited Armageddon to go down
C
Place your queens on the table
C
Who are weeping for your daughters
C F
Who are waiting for their Sunday to return
G
Every heart will be broken
G
Prophetic poems spoken
G C
From the mouths of every baby to be born
[Chorus]
F G C
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
F G C
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
[Bridge]
Am G
Let your cries be enjoyed
F C C/B
Let it always and forever fill the void
Am G
Allow my heart some room
F G [walk up on the 5th string 0-2-3 then 4th string 0-2)
May it be so that you'll one day need me soon
[Verse 4]
C
My wheels that are turning
C
And my back to the window
C F
I collected every wave from the shore
G G
I forgot I was human... [pause]
G
And I laid up my emotions
G C
And I knocked them like dishes to the floor
[Chorus]
F G C
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
F G C C F C
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
C C
The angel Moroni asleep in the carport
C F
With the newspaper under his arm
