Peter Yarrow Wrong Rainbow Lyrics

Em Am
Autumn leaves are falling round my feet
D E
Winter wind is at my face
Am Em
Cruelest stars are staring down
B Am B
Saying I've finally lost the race

(same chords)

Where did I learn my wandering ways?
What was I hoping there to find?
When did I realize what lie ahead
Could not make up for what I left behind?

Chorus
Em Am
Must have been the wrong rainbow
D G
I don't see any pot of gold
C D Am Em
All I see is a man, too old to start again

Solo Em Am D E

Verse 2
I had a girl in the summer of my youth
I loved her more and more each day
God only knows why I gave her up
For marriage to that cold, cold highway

Never knew the years could go so fast
Never felt my feet so slow
I bet it all on the yellows reds and blues
That ghost I used to call my rainbow

Chorus

End (same as solo)
