[Verse 1]
Cm7 Fm7
Swipe the last drop of rain from the windshield, The clouds start to part over head
Cm7 Fm7
My eyes ache after so long in darkness, After years in my spartan bed
G# Gm7 Cm
Curse the sun, I can't outrun the ghosts of my dead
Cm7 Fm7
Growing restless in my old chevy/ Chew my tongue like a stick of gum
Cm7 Fm7
Oh how I'm dreading the dredging of past days, too many years spent on the run
G# Gm7 Cm
Never stop, never slow, run from the places where I bled
[Chorus]
D# C#
I follow this trail of rainbows to the end of the road
Cm Fm7 G# Gm7
Until I arrive at last at the last place that I would call my home
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
Cm7 Fm7
If absence makes the heart grow fonder then I ain't been gone long enough
Cm7 Fm7
I Look around at the desolate wasteland, a shattered diamond in the rough
G# Gm7 Cm
No delay/just hell to pay/ for the songs I left unsung
[Chorus]
D# C#
And these rainbows won’t be keeping me down
Cm Fm7 G# Gm7
I can promise you now that those rabid dogs won’t be stickin’ around

Pay attention to the words of wisdom Sturm and Drang for the common man
Cm7 Fm7
Forget what Connie's been telling the good guys The reason you got feet is to stand
G# Gm7 Cm
Never Stop, straight ahead, never listen to what the book says
[Chorus]
D# C#
So I follow the trail of rainbows to the end of the road
Cm Fm7 G# Gm7
there aint' no pot of gold but I might get what I'm owed
D# C#
I can't dry the thunderclouds, but maybe I can stop the rain
Cm Fm7 G# Gm7
just keep my head above the water, these rainbows can't bring no pain
[Outro]
Cm7 Fm7
Oh these
G# Gm7 Cm
