A             Gbm
Why are there so many
D           E7
Songs about rainbows
A                 Gbm   D    E7
And what's on the other side
A             Gbm
Rainbow's are visions
D        E7
But only illusions
A                 Gbm        D    E7
And rainbows have nothing to hide

Someday we'll find it

The Rainbow Connection
Bm              E7      
The lovers, the dreamers and me

A                   Gbm
Who said that every wish
D                  E7
Would be heard and answered
A                  Gbm     D    E7
When wished on the morning star?
A        Gbm
Somebody thought of that
D           E7
And someone believed it
A              Gbm     D    E7
Look what it's done so far.

Someday we'll find it
A           Gbm
The Rainbow Connection
Bm              E7            A
The lovers, the dreamers and me
Gbm       A         Gbm
All of us under its spell
D                 A        E7  F7
We know that it's probably magic


Bb            Gm
Have you been half asleep
Eb                 F7
And have you heard voices?
Bb              Gm         Eb    F7
I've heard them calling my name
Bb          Gm               Eb              F7
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailor?
Bb                 Gm          Eb    F7
The voice might be one and the same


Eb

Well someday we'll find it
Bb          Gm
The Rainbow Connection
Cm             F7           Bb
The lovers the dreamers and me

im broke and i want merch

gonna be honest here. it annoys me so much when people are lazy and put “repeat same chords”. playing the ukulele is a two handed job; i can’t play and scroll at the same time.

gerard way's eyeliner

cayly

anybody know the strumming pattern?

iamnew

4+ is the easiest

Thalia Grace

Kay smillie

Every Thing is great apart from just saying repeat the last chords for the rest of the song could the be written in it would be much appreciated

just_a_broadway_baby

I find that a C major chord sounds better to me than the F/Eb chord suggested for the end of the chorus 🙂

Thalia Grace
