Intro:  E A (2x) 


verse 1 
        E                       A 
It was when I rode off in my daydream 
   E                     A 
Chasing that vision of light 
        E                        A 
It was then I got caught in the jet stream 
         E                            A 
And I dropped through a hole in the night 
        D                       F#m 
Then I knew it's not you that I run from 
       A           B     C#m 
I saw each of us living alone 
        D                                F#m 
And I prayed that you'd still could be waiting 
      A              B        C#m       B 
And that's when I started for home 


E      E7    A     F#m7 
Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny 
C#m7            B       B A F#m 
Oh my Jenny my love 
E      E7    A     F#m7 
Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny 
 B                   A      E B 
You are my rainbow above 


verse 2 
        E                      A 
I have seen a great city in darkness 
       E                      A 
Dream lady dressed in cold concrete 
     E                      A 
And I've seen the city of angels 
           E                         A 
With the names of its dead in the streets 
         D                      F#m 
And for once I could see it all your way 
         A          B          C#m 
And for once I knew I was all wrong 
         D                        F#m 
And I thought of you there in my doorway 
       A                B          C#m    B 
And I knew I'd been travellin' too long 


E      E7    A     F#m7 
Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny 
C#m7            B       B A F#m 
Oh my Jenny my love 
E      E7    A     F#m7 
Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny 
 B                   A      E B 
You are my rainbow above 

verse 3 
          E                           A 
When I crossed to the heart of the country 
       E                    A 
I was lost in a forest of signs 
         E                          A 
And I laughed 'cause life gets so funny 
             E                     A 
Here I was wasted from wastin' my time 
         D                       F#m 
So now shine down you sun on my shadow 
   A            B           C#m 
Without you I don't mean a thing 
      D                    F#m 
And gather me one golden morning babe 
             A             B         C#m    B 
'Cause it's your song that I need to sing 


E      E7    A     F#m7 
Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny 
C#m7            B       B A F#m 
Oh my Jenny my love 
E      E7    A     F#m7 
Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny 
 B                   A      E B 
You are my rainbow above
