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
