    The rain wasn't made of water
          C5          G5       C5           G5
    The snow didn't have a place in the sun
            A5       G5        A5  G5
    So we slipped behind the rainbow
         A5        C5           E5
    And laid back till we had done

    And then the rain wasn't made of water
    And the snow didn't have a place in the sun
    So we slipped behind the rainbow
    And laid back till we had done

   A5             G5         F5            F5 G5
Through northern lights on back streets
A5          G5               C5      F5
I told the coachman "just drive me on
          A5       G5    F5      F5 G5
It's the same old destination
       A5        G5        C5     F5
But a different world to sing upon"
         D5            F5          G5   D5
So he threw back his head and he counted
      A5         C5    G5  A5  A5
I got out about five to nine
            D5       F5         G5  D5
And I waved at the stage door-keeper
               A5             C5       E5
Said "mister, get me to the stage on time"

    And then the rain wasn't made of water
    And the snow didn't have a place in the sun
    So we slipped behind the rainbow
    And laid back till we had done

I packed my ammunition
Inside the crowd was shouting "encore"
But I had a most funny feeling
It wasn't me they were shouting for
So when the tall dark lady smiled at me
I said "oh baby let us go for a ride"
And we came upon two drinks or four
And popped them oh so neatly inside

    And then the rain wasn't made of water
    And the snow didn't have a place in the sun
    So we slipped behind the rainbow
    And laid back till we had done

        D5       F5          G5   D5
Let me pack you deep in my suitcase
            A5         C5    G5    A5  A5
Oh there's sure to be room for two
             D5      F5      G5   D5
Or you can drive me to the airplane
           A5               C5        E5
But don't let me get those rainbow blues

    And then the rain wasn't made of water
    And the snow didn't have a place in the sun
    So we slipped behind the rainbow
    And laid back till we had done

    So then the rain wasn't made of water
    And the snow didn't have a place in the sun
    So we slipped behind the rainbow
    And laid back till we had done

    The snow didn't have a place in the sun

    The rain wasn't made of water
