Why are there  
Em 
so many  
C 
songs about  
D 
rainbows,  
 
G 
and what's on the  
Em 
other  
C 
side? 
D7 
 
 
G 
Rainbows are  
Em 
visions, but  
Am 
only  
D 
illusions.  
 
G 
And Rainbows have  
Em 
nothing to  
C 
hide.  
 
Cmaj7 
So we've been told and some choose to believe it.  
 
F#m 
I know they're wrong wait and see. 
 
 
 
 
 
Am 
Some day we'll

lovers, the  
D7 
dreamers, and  
G 
me.

Who said that  
Em 
every wish will  
C 
be heard and  
D 
answered  
 
G 
When wished on the  
Em 
morning  
C 
star? 
D7 
 
 
G 
Somebody  
Em 
thought of that and  
Am 
someone  
D 
believed it.  
 
G 
Look what it's  
Em 
done so  
C 
far.  
 
Cmaj7 
What's so amazing and keeps us stargazing?

What do we think we might see?

Some day we'll  
D 
find it, the

D 
All of us  
Em 
under its  
G 
spell,  
 
 
C 
We know that it's  
Am 
probably  
D 
magic  
D7 
 
 
 
 
 
 
G 
Have you been  
Em 
half asleep and  
C 
have you heard  
D 
voices?  
 
G 
I've heard them  
Em 
calling my  
C 
name. 
D7 
 
 
G 
Is it the  
Em 
sweet sounds that  
C 
called the young  
D 
sailors?  
 
G 
I think that they're  
Em 
one and  
C 
the same.  
 
Cmaj7 
I've heard it too many times to ignore it.  
 
F#m 
It's something that I'm supposed to be. 
 
 
 
 
 
Am 
Some day we'll  
D 
find it, the  
G 
rainbow con 
E7 
-nection,  
 
 
 
The

lovers, the  
D7 
dreamers, and

me.
