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

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

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