Rainbow Connection
Intro: G-C9-G-C9
Verse 1:
C Am F G
Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
C Am F-G
What''''s on the other side?
C Am F G
Rainbows are visions but only illusions
C Am F-G
And rainbows got nothing to hide
Am
So we''''ve been told and some choose to believe it
G
I know they''''re wrong wait and see
F G E Am
Someday we''''ll find that the rainbow connection
F G C-Am-C-Am
The lover''''s the dreamers and me
Verse 2: (Same as verse 1 chords)
They said that every wish would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star
Somebody thought of that and someone believe it
But look what it''''s done so far
What so amazing that keeps us stargazing?
What do we think we might see?
Someday we''''ll find that the rainbow connection
The lovers the dreamers and me
Refrain:
G C G
All of us under its spell
F C G-G#
we know that it''''s probably magic...
Verse 3: (Same as verse 1 and 2)
Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices
I hear them calling my name
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
Could it be one at the same?
I heard it too many times to ignore it
Something that I''''m supposed to be
Someday we''''ll find that the rainbow connection
The lovers the dreamers and me
La lalala lalala lalalalalalala laaaaaaa! Yeah.
