A             F#m      
Why are there so many  
Bm          E7        
songs about rainbows  
    A             F#m       D     E7 
And what's on the o-o-other side?   
A            F#m      
Rainbows are visions  
    Bm      E7      
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       
Someday we'll find it  
    C#m7       F#       
the rainbow connection  
    Bm         E7           A  D 
The lovers the dreamers and me   
   
A             F#m    
Who said that every  
           Bm           E7        
wish would be heard and answered  
     A             F#m         D     E7 
When wished on the mo-o-orning star?   
A        F#m      
Somebody thought  
            Bm        E7         
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       
Someday we'll find it  
    C#m7       F#       
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           
Have you been half asleep  
    Cm             F        
and have you heard voices?  
Bb              Gm         Eb   F 
I've heard them calling my name   
Bb          Gm           
Is this the sweet sound  
     Cm             F         
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        
Someday we'll find it  
    Dm         G         
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
