D
The scene was a small roadside cafe
                                A
The waitress was sweepin' the floor
Two truck drivers drinkin' their coffee
                          D
And two okie kids by the door

How much are them candies, they asked her
How much have you got, she replied
We've only a penny between us
Them's two for a penny, she lied

Chorus:
         G                         D
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
          A                       D
And the smell of the rain on the wind
G                     D
Ain't it just like a human
 A                        D
Here comes that rainbow again

      E
One truck driver called to the waitress
                        B
After the kids went outside
Them candies ain't two for a penny
                             E
So what's it to you, she replied

    E
In silence they finished their coffee
                       A
Got up and nodded goodbye
                                    E
She called, hey, you left too much money
     B                        E
So what's it to you, they replied

Chorus:
         A                         E
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
          B                       E
And the smell of the rain on the wind
A                     E
Ain't it just like a human
 B                        E
Here comes that rainbow again
A                     E
Ain't it just like a human
 B                        E
Here comes that rainbow again
