[Verse 1]
F#m7 Bm7
Swipe the last drop of rain from the windshield, The clouds start to part over head
F#m7 Bm7
My eyes ache after so long in darkness, After years in my spartan bed
D C#m7 F#m
Curse the sun, I can't outrun the ghosts of my dead
F#m7 Bm7
Growing restless in my old chevy/ Chew my tongue like a stick of gum
F#m7 Bm7
Oh how I'm dreading the dredging of past days, too many years spent on the run
D C#m7 F#m
Never stop, never slow, run from the places where I bled
[Chorus]
A G
I follow this trail of rainbows to the end of the road
F#m Bm7 D C#m7
Until I arrive at last at the last place that I would call my home
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
F#m7 Bm7
If absence makes the heart grow fonder then I ain't been gone long enough
F#m7 Bm7
I Look around at the desolate wasteland, a shattered diamond in the rough
D C#m7 F#m
No delay/just hell to pay/ for the songs I left unsung
[Chorus]
A G
And these rainbows won’t be keeping me down
F#m Bm7 D C#m7
I can promise you now that those rabid dogs won’t be stickin’ around
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
F#m7 Bm7
Pay attention to the words of wisdom Sturm and Drang for the common man
F#m7 Bm7
Forget what Connie's been telling the good guys The reason you got feet is to stand
D C#m7 F#m
Never Stop, straight ahead, never listen to what the book says
[Chorus]
A G
So I follow the trail of rainbows to the end of the road
F#m Bm7 D C#m7
there aint' no pot of gold but I might get what I'm owed
A G
I can't dry the thunderclouds, but maybe I can stop the rain
F#m Bm7 D C#m7
just keep my head above the water, these rainbows can't bring no pain
[Outro]
F#m7 Bm7
Oh these
D C#m7 F#m
