Intro

Verse

There's a cloud coming through my window

There's a corn husk tied round my banjo

In the hallway bright and plain clothed

She's come home to steal her rainbows

Interlude 1

Verse

She was born in a lighthouse stairwell

Ghosts of the Great Lakes declared their angel

Would lead the freight trains to where the land parts

And bring them home to see their sweethearts

Interlude 2

Bridge

And when the clouds came,

Oh there were rainbows!

E (or variation, E57b6)

Verse

She was long like a union rifle

She was cold as a motel bible

When we kissed 'neath the moonlight's halo

She'd come home to steal her rainbows
