Intro
(if you take a listen to the song you can quickly figure out the plucking pattern)
A -- D
Verse 1
A F#m D E
Why are there so many songs about rainbows
A F#m D E
And what's on the other side
A F#m
Rainbows are visions
D E
But only illusions
A F#m D E
And rainbows have nothing to hide
D
So we've been told
And some choose to believe it
C#m
I know they're wrong, wait and see
Chorus
Bm E
Some day we'll find it
C#m F#m
The rainbow connection
D E A
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
(small musical interlude: same thing as the intro)
A -- D
Verse 2
A F#m
Who said that every wish
D E
Would be heard and answered
A F#m D E
When wished on the morning star
A F#m
Somebody thought of that
D E
And someone believed it
A F#m D E
And look what it's done so far
D
What's so amazing
That keeps us stargazing
C#m
And what do we think we might see
Bm E
Some day we'll find it
C#m F#m
The rainbow connection
D E A
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
Bm F#m E D C#m E F
All of us under its spell, we know that it's probably magic
Note (key change from A to Bb)
Bb Gm
Have you been half asleep?
Eb F
And have you heard voices?
Bb Gm Eb F
I've heard them calling my name;
Bb Gm
Is this the sweet sound
Eb F
That called the young sailors?
Bb Gm Eb F
The voice might be one and the same
Eb
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
Dm
It's something that I'm supposed to be
Cm F
Some day we'll find it
Dm Gm
The rainbow connection
Eb F Bb
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
Cm G F Eb Cm Bb--------
