G
The scene was a small roadside café
                                 D
The waitress was sweeping the floor

Two truck drivers drinking their coffee
                         G
And two Okie kids by the door

[Verse 2]
"How much are them candies?" they asked her
                              D
"How much have you got?" she replied

"We've only a penny between us"
                            G
Them's two for a penny" she lied

[Chorus]
         C                         G
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
          D                         G
With the smell of the rains on the wind
 C                   G
Ain't it just like a human
 D                       G
Here comes that rainbow again

[Verse 3]
A
One truck driver called to the waitress
                     E
After the kids went outside

"Them candies ain't two for a penny"
                             A
"So what's it to you?" she replied

[Verse 4]
A
In silence they finished their coffee
                       D
And got up and nodded goodbye
                                  A
She called,"Hey you left too much money"
    E                         A
"So what's it to you?" they replied

[Chorus]
         D                       A
And the daylight was heavy with thunder
          E                        A
With the smell of the rains on the wind
D                   A
Ain't it just like a human
 E                       A
Here comes that rainbow again

D                    A
Ain't it just like a human
E                       A
Here comes that rainbow again
