A D A
Josie it's been a long hard day

Down the road to where it's at I must have lost my way

When I got there they said I was too late

Now you're the only one can get me straight
 
[Refrão]
A D
So won't you sing me a rainbow Josie roll me a song

Just tonight make it right 'cause it's been wrong for oh so long

There's lots of shades of darkness, Josie deep inside a man

So sing me a rainbow if you can

The train I went to meet had come and gone

I sold my mind and gave my dreams away

And tomorrow I'll start lookin' 'round for yesterday

But 'til then sing me a rainbow Josie roll me a song

Just tonight make it right 'cause it's been wrong for oh so long

There's lots of kinds of hunger Josie you don't understand

So sing me a rainbow if you can

If you can, if you can

Sing me a rainbow if you can
