Chord/Tab song: Rainbow Man

I was [C]born in Alabama, but I [G]never knew my Momma.
[Bb]She gave me away at three months [F]old.
Some [C]folks in Mississippi [G]took me in an' kept me,
An' [Bb]treated me just like I was their [F]own.
A [Am]Holiness [G]preacher man's [F]daughter,
And a [Dm]hard-working [F]sharecropper [G]father.

An' my real [C]Momma was Apache, my real [G]Daddy? Hell, don't ask me.
[Bb]Momma says she don't remember [F]him.
An' I'm sure [C]somewhere in my history, I've [G]got some slave blood in me.
An' [Bb]some folks think I look Mexi[F]can.
I [Am]never really [G]fit in any [F]place,
'Cause there's [Dm]always a [F]part of me to [G]hate.

I'm the [F]rainbow man.
That's [C]who I am.
I'm a little [G]white an' black an' red and [C]tanned.
I've got [F]all these different [C/E]colors in my [Dm]skin.[Gsus]
I'm the [C]rainbow man.

Well, [C]I know you may doubt it, but if you [G]stop an' think about it,
[Bb]There's one common thing that we've all [F]got.
[C]People from all countries come [G]here because they're hungry,
For what's [Bb]cookin' in America's meltin' [F]pot.
[Am]We're all [G]different but the [F]same.
[Dm]Red's the only color in our [G]veins.

And I'm the [F]rainbow man.
Livin' in a [C]rainbow land.
I'm [G]white an' black an' yellow an' brown an' [C]red and tanned.
And I'm so [F]proud of all the [C/E]colors that I [Dm]am:[Gsus]
I'm the [C]rainbow man.
All these [F]colors make [C/E]me Ameri[Dm]can,[Gsus]
I'm the [C]rainbow man.[Bb][C]
