A             F#m      Bm          E7        
Why are there so many… songs about rainbows  
    A             F#m       D     E7 
And what's on the o-o-other side?   
A            F#m         Bm      E7      
Rainbows are visions but only illusions  
    A             F#m        D    E7 
And rainbows have nothing to hide   
Dmaj7                                             
So we've been told and some choose to believe it  
C#m7                                
I know they're wrong, wait and see  
Bm7           E7           C#m7       F#       
Someday we'll find it… the rainbow connection  
    Bm          E7            A  D 
The lovers… the dreamers… and me   
   
A             F#m              Bm           E7        
Who said that every wish would be heard and answered  
     A             F#m         D     E7 
When wished on the mo-o-orning star?   
A        F#m                 Bm        E7         
Somebody thought of that and someone believed it  
A              F#m     D   E7 
Look what it's done so far   
Dmaj7                                        
What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing  
    C#m7                            
And what do we think we might see?  
Bm7           E7          C#m7       F#       
Someday we'll find it the rainbow connection  
    Bm         E7           A   
The lovers the dreamers and me  
   
E7        F#m       E      
All of us under its spell  
   D              A        E F   F F 
We know that it's probably magic     
   
Bb            Gm               Cm             F        
Have you been half asleep… and have you heard voices?  
Bb              Gm         Eb   F 
I've heard them calling my name   
Bb          Gm               Cm             F         
Is this the sweet sound that calls to young sailors?  
     Bb             Gm          Eb   F 
That voice might be one and the same   
   
Ebmaj7                                     
I've heard it too many times to ignore it  
     Dm                                 
It's something that I'm supposed to be  
Cm            F           Dm         G         
Someday we'll find it the rainbow connection.  
    Cm          F            Bb  
The lovers, the dreamers and me  
   
F           Gm          F    
Laaa  da da deee  da da doo  
   Eb          F         Bb    
La daaa  da da daa de da dooo
