Rainbow Road

Em     D     C     G

        Em                   Bm
I was born a poor poor man
                   G                 C
All my life I had hard workin' hands
                   Cm                   G
But I sang my song as I carried my load
                        C                G
Cuz I had a dream about rainbow, rainbow road

                 Em                   Bm
And then one day my chance came along
                        G                           C
A man heard me singing, and playing these old songs
                           Cm                    G
He bought me fine clothes, paid the money I owed
                       C               G               Em
Sent me on my way to rainbow, rainbow road

                   D                    C                
And then one night, a man with a knife
             G               C
Forced me, to take his life
                                 Cm
Though i pleaded with him, so desperately
      G                           C                     Em        D         G          
The judge showed no mercy when he paste his sentence on me

              Em                     Bm
Now as i pull, these ball and chain
                     G                C
wearing this number, for my name
                Cm                   G
dreams like me, have all grown old
                              C                Em           D
but I still dream about that rainbow, rainbow road, rainbow road,
C                                       G
I still dream about that rainbow road, rainbow road

Em      D      C     G
