Verse 1: 
          G 
      The scene was a small roadside cafe 
                                        D 
      The waitress was sweeping the floor 
 
      Two truck drivers drinking their coffee 
                                  G  
      And two Okie kids by the door 
 
Verse 2: 
 
      "How much are them candies?" they asked her 
                                      D 
      "How much have you got?" she replied 
 
      "We've only a penny between us" 
                                      G  
      "Them's two for a penny" she lied 
 
Chorus: 
                  C                         G 
      And the daylight grew heavy with thunder 
                  D                         G 
      With the smell of the rains on the wind 
          C                   G   
      Ain't it just like a human 
          D                       G  
      Here comes that rainbow again

      Here comes that rainbow again
