Verse: G Em Why are there so many Am D Songs about rainbows G Em C And what's on the other side? G Em Rainbows are visions Am D But only illusions G Em C And rainbows have nothing to hide Bridge: Cmaj7 So we've been told and some choose to believe it Gbm I know they're wrong wait and see Chorus: Am D Bm E7 Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection Am D7 G The lovers, the dreamers and me Verse: G Em Who said that every wish Am D Would be heard and answered G Em C When wished on the morning star? G Em Somebody thought of that Am D And someone believed it G Em C Look what it's done so far Bridge: Cmaj7 What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing Gbm And what do we think we might see? Chorus: Am D Bm E7 Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection Am D7 G The lovers, the dreamers and me Bridge: D Em G All of us under its spell C D -D7 And we know that it's probably ma-gic Verse: G Em Have you been half asleep Am D And have you heard voices? G Em C I've heard them calling my name G Em Is this the sweet sound Am D That calls the young sailors? G Em C The voice might be one and the same Bridge: Cmaj7 I've heard it too many times to ignore it Gbm It's something that I'm supposed to be Chorus: Am D Bm E7 Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection Am E7 G The lovers, the dreamers and me This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

How to play Rainbow Connection (and Steve Whitmire) on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the island strum: d – d u – u d u. It rolls along at a medium pace of around 88 bpm with a light swing. On this page the song is in G major. Chord-wise this is an easy one: everything sits at the rookie level. Gently swing your eighths and let the strum carry the melody.

This is the best Rainbow Connection tab I’ve seen. Just the original transposition is pretty easy. For an outro I play:
D Em G C D G
How is this supposed to be EASY??
idk if it’s my ear or something but gbm does not sound right
+2 is the correct transposer.
Anyone know the strumming pattern?
