Here Comes that Rainbow Again - guitar chords and comments
Lyrics without distraction HERE
Kristofferson wrote this about 1980, releasing it first as a single in -81, then with the collaboration album "The Winning Hand" with Willie Nelson, Brenda Lee and Dolly Parton in -82. It's found on the compilation "The Essential Kris Kristofferson" (2004) and a couple of live albums.Kris grabbed the scene from John Steinbeck's 1939 novel "Grapes of Wrath", chapter 15. With such an amazing result, I think Steinbeck himself would have given him applause.
A the scene was a small roadside cafe E the waitress was sweeping the floor E7 two truck drivers drinking their coffee A and two okie kids by the door A how much are them candies they asked her E how much have you got she replied E7 we've only a penny between us E6 A them's two for a penny she lied A7 D A and the daylight was heavy with thunder E E7 A ...A7 with the smell of the rain on the wind D A ain't it just like a human E E6 A here comes that rainbow again
