 (Intro:  / )
Why  are there so  many songs  about rainbows
 and what's  on the other side?
Rainbows  are visions,  but only  illusions
 and rainbows  have nothing  to hide
 So  we've been told and some choose to believe it
 I  know they're wrong, wait and see
Someday  we'll find  it, the rainbow connection
The  lovers, the dreamers  and me
 (same chords as above)
 Who said that every wish would be heard and answered
 when wished on the morning star?
 Somebody thought of that and someone believed it
 Look what it's done so far
 What's so amazing that keeps us star-gazing?
 And what do we think we might see?
 Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
 The lovers, the dreamers and me
All  of us under  its spell
 We know  that it's probably  magic
 Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
 I've heard them calling my name
 Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
 The voice might be one and the same
 I've heard it too many times to ignore it
 It's something that I'm supposed to be
 Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
 The lovers, the deamers and me
 (Verse Chords / Pre Chorus Chords / Chorus Chords/ Intro Chords)
 ^Base upon E-Major Pentatonic scale.
 Enjoy =)
