Verse 1:
  C majorC       C majorC
The angel Moroni asleep in the carport
     C majorC          FF
With the newspaper under his arm
  G+G          G+G
It seems I was late to deliver his car keys
   G+G              C majorC
So it looks like we are staying behind

  C majorC
Was Lucifer bashful
  C majorC            FF
In hiding his face from the Lord
   G+G
Dear Jesus, forgive me
  G+G          C majorC
I'm only doing as I was told

  C majorC
For as it is written
    C majorC            FF
I will soon one day face my own fire
   G+G
This world will go with me
     G+G            C majorC
If I can just get them all on my side


Chorus:
   FF    G+G      C majorC
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
   FF    G+G      C majorC
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier


Verse 3:
   C majorC
I was late to the parlor
     C majorC
When the wind it blew forward
  C majorC           FF
And demanded we get out of town
  G+G
So me and Moroni
     G+G      G+G
Took the keys to the steeple
   G+G            C majorC
And awaited Armageddon to go down

      C majorC
Place your queens on the table
    C majorC
Who are weeping for your daughters
    C majorC               FF
Who are waiting for their Sunday to return
   G+G
Every heart will be broken
  G+G
Prophetic poems spoken
     G+G             C majorC
From the mouths of every baby to be born

Chorus:
   FF    G+G      C majorC
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
   FF    G+G      C majorC
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier

Bridge:
A minorAm         G+G
 Let your cries be enjoyed
    FF              C majorC  C/BC/B
Let it always and forever fill the void
A minorAm          G+G
 Allow my heart some room
    FF                 G+G  [walk up on the 5th string 0-2-3 then 4th string 0-2)
May it be so that you'll one day need me soon

Verse 4:
  C majorC
My wheels that are turning
    C majorC
And my back to the window
   C majorC             FF
I collected every wave from the shore
 G+G           G+G
I forgot I was human... pause:
         G+G
And I laid up my emotions
            G+G       C majorC
And I knocked them like dishes to the floor

Chorus:
   FF    G+G      C majorC
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
   FF    G+G      C majorC    C majorC FF C majorC
Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
