intro : G Bm7 C Cm G D7sus4 D7 G

G Gmaj7
you used to dream yourself away each night

B7 Em7 Am7
to places that you’d never been

G Em
on wings made of wishes

Am7 D7sus4 D7
that you whispered to yourself .

G Bm7
back when every night the moon and you

C Cm G
would sweep away to places that you knew

D7 G
where you would never get the blues

B7 Em7 B7
well now , whiskey gives you wings

Em7 D G
to carry each one of your dreams

G Gmaj7
and the moon does not belong to you

C B7 Em7 B7
but i believe that your heart keeps young dreams

Em7 A7
well , i’ve been told to keep from ever growing old

C
and a heart that has been broken

D7sus4 D7
will be stronger when it mends

G Bm7
don’t let the blues stop you singing

C Cm
darlin’ , you’ve only got a broken wing

G D7sus4 D7
hey , you just hang on to my rainbow

G C
hang on to my rainbow

G D7 G
hang on to my rainbow sleeves
