C Bm7 Em
[Verse 1]
Em7 Am7
Swipe the last drop of rain from the windshield, The clouds start to part over head
Em7 Am7
My eyes ache after so long in darkness, After years in my spartan bed
C Bm7 Em
Curse the sun, I can't outrun the ghosts of my dead
Em7 Am7
Growing restless in my old chevy/ Chew my tongue like a stick of gum
Em7 Am7
Oh how I'm dreading the dredging of past days, too many years spent on the run
C Bm7 Em
Never stop, never slow, run from the places where I bled
[Chorus]
G F
I follow this trail of rainbows to the end of the road
Em Am7 C Bm7
Until I arrive at last at the last place that I would call my home
[Solo]

C Bm7 Em
[Verse 2]
Em7 Am7
If absence makes the heart grow fonder then I ain't been gone long enough
Em7 Am7
I Look around at the desolate wasteland, a shattered diamond in the rough
C Bm7 Em
No delay/just hell to pay/ for the songs I left unsung
[Chorus]
G F
And these rainbows won’t be keeping me down
Em Am7 C Bm7
I can promise you now that those rabid dogs won’t be stickin’ around
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
Em7 Am7
Pay attention to the words of wisdom Sturm and Drang for the common man
Em7 Am7
Forget what Connie's been telling the good guys The reason you got feet is to stand
C Bm7 Em
Never Stop, straight ahead, never listen to what the book says
[Chorus]
G F
So I follow the trail of rainbows to the end of the road
Em Am7 C Bm7
there aint' no pot of gold but I might get what I'm owed
G F
I can't dry the thunderclouds, but maybe I can stop the rain
Em Am7 C Bm7
just keep my head above the water, these rainbows can't bring no pain
[Outro]
Em7 Am7
Oh these
C Bm7 Em
