Standard tuning it sounds fine playing a cadd9 in place of the c and is much easier to transition.
There's a (G) big brown cloud in the city, 
And the (C) country sides a (G) sin
The (C) price of life is to (G) high to give up, 
it's gotta come down (D) again
When the (G) worldwide war is (D) over and (G) done, 
and the dream of peace comes (C) true...
We'll all be drinking that (G) free bubble up and (D) eatin that rainbow (G) stew.
When they find out how to burn the water, 
and the (C) gasoline car is (G) gone
When an (C) airplane flies with (G) out any fuel 
and the sunlight heats our (D) home
(G) One of these days when the (D) air clears (G) up 
and the sun comes shining (C) through...
We'll all be drinking that (G) free bubble up and (D) eatin that rainbow (G) stew.
Chorus;
(G) Eatin rainbow stew with a silver spoon under (C) neath that sky of (G) blue
(C) We'll all be drinking that (G) free bubble up and (D) eatin that rainbow (G) stew
(G) You don't have to get high to get happy, 
just (C) think about what's in (G) store
When (C) people start doin what they 
(G) ought to be doing then they won't be booing no (D) more
When a (G)president goes thru the (D) white house (G) 
door and does what he says he'll (C) do...
We'll all be drinking that (G) free bubble up and (D) eatin that rainbow (G) stew
