       THE RAINBOW IN DADDY'S EYES
           SAMMI SMITH

INTRO: AbAb DbDb AbAb Eb MajorEb


VERSE:
AbAb          DbDb       AbAb          Eb MajorEb
 On a cold and grey  October day  our family moved away
AbAb          DbDb    BbmBbm   Eb MajorEb
 From a thirty acre farm in Tennessee
AbAb          DbDb           AbAb
 And the part for me in the schoolhouse play would have to wait
          Eb MajorEb    AbAb
On a rainbow that only daddy would ever see.

CHORUS:
DbDb        Eb MajorEb      AbAb
 That was when my mama started praying
DbDb           AbAb     BbmBbm Eb MajorEb
Lord let him dream but make him realize
   DbDb          Eb MajorEb         DbDb    BbmBbm
That dreams won't feed the children that we're raisin' today
  AbAb      Eb MajorEb        AbAb  DbDb AbAb Eb MajorEb
Oh Lord take the rainbow from his eyes.


VERSE:
AbAb           DbDb      AbAb        Eb MajorEb
Well even after I grew older we kept waitin' for the home
AbAb         DbDb       BbmBbm  Eb MajorEb
 That daddy kept on building in his mind
AbAb       DbDb        AbAb
 And on the day he passed away  he took my mama's hand
           Eb MajorEb      AbAb
And said honey I can make it just give me time.


CHORUS::
DbDb     Eb MajorEb        AbAb
 Jesus I pray that you'll forgive him
   DbDb    AbAb      BbmBbm  Eb MajorEb
For dreaming away my mama's smile
DbDb            Eb MajorEb      DbDb    BbmBbm
 And Lord if there's a rainbow up in heaven today
 AbAb         Eb MajorEb     AbAb      BbmBbm DbDb AbAb
Please Lord let it shine in my daddy's eyes...
