(No Capo)
Intro.: |(C) |(G) |(C) |(G) |(C) |(G) |(C) |(C) ---
Not that (G)long ago I was on the (C)run
People (G)telling me I should be some-(C)one
And the (Am)things I'd learned were for-(Dsus4)gotten in my (D7)haste
Till I (F)reached the end of the (G)rainbow I had chased
(Chorus)
It was (C)only (G)water shining (C)in thin (G)air
I put (C)out my (G)hand and there was nothing there |(C)(Dm)|(F)(G)
After (C)all the (G)promise, after (C)all the (G)prayer
It was (C)only (G)water shining in the air
Solo: |(C) |(G) |(C) |(G) ---
Now I've (G)got a wife and she sees me (C)through
And I've (G)got a friend I can talk straight (C)to
And I've (Am)got some dreams just a (Dsus4)bit more down to (D7)earth
And I (F)don't forget what a (G)rainbow's really worth
(Chorus)
'Cause it's (C)only (G)water shining (C)in thin (G)air
I put (C)out my (G)hand and there was nothing there |(C)(Dm)|(F)(G)
After (C)all the (G)promise, after (C)all the (G)prayer
It was (C)only (G)water shining in the air
Solo: |(C) |(C) |
(Bridge)
(D7) If you want fame and fortune, then you just be my guest
(F) If you want to pay those dues, I (G)wish you all the (A)best
(Chorus)
But it's (D)only (A)water shining (D)in the (A)air
I put (D)out my (A)hand and there was nothing there |(D)(Em)|(G)(A)
After (D)all the (A)promise, after (D)all the (A)care
It was (D)only (A)water shining in the air (D)(Em)(G)(A)
It was (D)only (A)water shining in the air |(D)(Em)|(G)(A)|(D) -----
