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
