"When the rainbow comes"
by Karl Wallinger
From the album "Goodbye Jumbo" by World Party

(Verse)

Em

C'mon pack your bags

A

Clear the floor

D G G/F# Em

Let's step out through the open door

A7 D DSus D

Leave a note that says goodbye

verse:

Build a new house

down by the sea

Get to the place you were mean't to be

You'll know it when you smile

verse:

Up at the window

search in the the sky

Looking for the rainbow

And don't ask why

I wanna see the rainbow come

Hey!

verse:

We'll be leaving on all sides, hmmm

When the rainbow comes

La la la la la la la etc.

(Chorus)

Em

Mr. Postman look and see

G

If there's a message in your bag for me

A

Could be a bomb or it could be a letter

Em

It don't matter it can only get better

Em

Mr. Postman look and see

G

If there's a message in your bag for me

A

You know it's been such a long long time

Em

Since I could laugh at this world of mine

verse:

Slippin' and slidin' around in your head

It's be-bop-a-lula then baby your dead

So c'mon make a bright new day

I need a prayer here

Need a blessing

Cast an eye back as you run

Turn around boy!

See the rainbow come

verse:

You'll be leaving on all sides

When the rainbow comes

When the rainbow comes

See the world from all sides

When the rainbow comes

When the rainbow comes
