[INTRO]
[E] [A] (2x)
[VERSE 1]
It was w[E]hen I rode off in my day[A]dream
Cha[E]sing that vision of li[A]ght
It was t[E]hen I got caught in the j[A]et stream
And I dro[E]pped through a hole in the ni[A]ght
Then I k[D]new it's not you that I [F#m]run from
I saw e[A]ach of us li[B]ving a[C#m]lone
And I pr[D]ayed that you'd still could be wa[F#m]iting
And th[A]at's when I sta[B]rted for [C#m]home [B]
[CHORUS]
[E]Oh my J[E7]enny, [A]oh my [F#m7]Jenny
[C#m7]Oh my Jenny my l[B]ove [B] [A] [F#m]
[E]Oh my J[E7]enny, [A]oh my [F#m7]Jenny
Y[B]ou are my rainbow ab[A]ove [E] [B]
[VERSE 2]
I have s[E]een a great city in dar[A]kness
Dream l[E]ady dressed in cold con[A]crete
And I[E]'ve seen the city of an[A]gels
With the na[E]mes of its dead in the str[A]eets
And for o[D]nce I could see it all [F#m]your way
And for o[A]nce I knew [B]I was all w[C#m]rong
And I tho[D]ught of you there in my d[F#m]oorway
And I k[A]new I'd been trav[B]ellin' too [C#m]long [B]
[CHORUS]
[E]Oh my J[E7]enny, [A]oh my [F#m7]Jenny
[C#m7]Oh my Jenny my l[B]ove [B] [A] [F#m]
[E]Oh my J[E7]enny, [A]oh my [F#m7]Jenny
Y[B]ou are my rainbow ab[A]ove [E] [B]
[VERSE 3]
When I cro[E]ssed to the heart of the cou[A]ntry
I was l[E]ost in a forest of si[A]gns
And I lau[E]ghed 'cause life gets so fu[A]nny
Here I was wa[E]sted from wastin' my t[A]ime
So now sh[D]ine down you sun on my s[F#m]hadow
Wit[A]hout you I do[B]n't mean a t[C#m]hing
And ga[D]ther me one golden mo[F#m]rning babe
'Cause it's y[A]our song that [B]I need to [C#m]sing [B]
[CHORUS]
[E]Oh my J[E7]enny, [A]oh my [F#m7]Jenny
[C#m7]Oh my Jenny my l[B]ove [B] [A] [F#m]
[E]Oh my J[E7]enny, [A]oh my [F#m7]Jenny
Y[B]ou are my rainbow ab[A]ove [E] [B]
