Rainbow Man(Ukulele chords)

	        
      C                      G 
I was born in Alabama, but I never knew my Momma. 
Bb                               F 
She gave me away at three months old. 
     C                    G 
Some folks in Mississippi took me in an' kept me, 
    Bb                               F 
An' treated me just like I was their own. 
  Am       G              F 
A Holiness preacher man's daughter, 
      Dm           F            G 
And a hard-working sharecropper father. 
 
 
            C                         G 
An' my real Momma was Apache, my real Daddy? Hell, don't ask me. 
Bb                            F 
Momma says she don't remember him. 
             C                             G 
An' I'm sure somewhere in my history, I've got some slave blood in me. 
    Bb                          F 
An' some folks think I look Mexican. 
  Am           G          F 
I never really fit in any place, 
               Dm       F             G 
'Cause there's always a part of me to hate. 
 
 
        F 
I'm the rainbow man. 
       C 
That's who I am. 
             G                           C 
I'm a little white an' black an' red and tanned. 
         F                   C/E          Dm   Gsus 
I've got all these different colors in my skin. 
        C 
I'm the rainbow man. 
 
 
      C                                   G 
Well, I know you may doubt it, but if you stop an' think about it, 
Bb                                      F 
There's one common thing that we've all got. 
C                              G 
People from all countries come here because they're hungry, 
           Bb                           F 
For what's cookin' in America's meltin' pot. 
Am        G                 F 
We're all different but the same. 
Dm                          G 
Red's the only color in our veins. 
 
 
            F 
And I'm the rainbow man. 
            C 
Livin' in a rainbow land. 
    G                                         C 
I'm white an' black an' yellow an' brown  an' red and tanned. 
           F                C/E           Dm  Gsus 
And I'm so proud of all the colors that I am: 
        C 
I'm the rainbow man. 
          F           C/E     Dm  Gsus 
All these colors make me American, 
        C            Bb  C 
I'm the rainbow man.
