Chasin’ A Rainbow Hank Snow

Chasin' the rainbow 'til the day that I die

Rain starts to fall and the sun fades away
Memories start calling, another new day
It's hard to keep tryin' to reach for a star
With no-one beside me but my old guitar
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry
Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die

Just thinkin' over the years of my life
My many proud moments, my struggles and strife
The days of good fortune, when a good gal was mine
How foolish of me to have left her behind
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry
Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die

[Instrumental Break]

My mind keeps a-wonderin' for things in my past
The money I made, but I couldn't make last
The vows that I've broken, the lies that I've told
Mistakes that I've made in my quest for life's gold
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry
Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die

Now often I think of the things I have missed
All the girls that I knew that I never kissed
All the dares that were offered and never did try
Lost many good memories how foolish was I
But I gotta keep movin', no time to cry
Chasin' a rainbow 'til the day that I die
