Chords

As recorded by John Mellencamp (From the 2022 Album STRICTLY A ONE-EYED JACK) [Intro] D Bm A G A D Bm A G A [Verse 1]
D            G
A long, long time ago

                     A
When I used to chase rainbows

D                     Bm
I thought there was a pot of gold

       A
When I got to the end

D                          G
But there were many people there

                          A
And I said, "What are you doing here?"

D                   Bm              G          A   D
They said they were looking for the end of the rainbow
[Chorus]
D                 Em7
At the end of the rainbow

                   A
Turns out it's not somewhere

D                 Bm
Look around, it's everywhere

    G  A       D
For anyone who cares
[Interlude] D Bm A G A D Bm A G A [Verse 2]
     D                G
This world is full of fancy dreams

                      A
And money can get you anything

D                     Bm
But that's not really true

          A
It's just make-believe

       D                        G
As you walk down the streets of broken dreams

                     A
Where some have lost everything

D                      Bm
While others are still looking for

G         A      D
That easy pot of gold
[Chorus]
D                 Em
At the end of the rainbow

                   A
Turns out it's not somewhere

D                 Bm
Look around, it's everywhere

    G  A       D
For anyone who cares
[Fiddle Solo] D G A D G A D Bm D G A D [Verse 3]
D                      G
Some people will go to any means

             A
To capture a shallow dream

D                Bm
In this world of make-believe

        A
That we all believe is true

D                           G
When you get there, there's no place to go

                A
Just a lot of I-told-you-so's

D                          Bm
So take this love with you when you go

       G          A   D
To the end of the rainbow
[Chorus]
D                 Em
At the end of the rainbow

                   A
Turns out it's not somewhere

D                 Bm
Look around, it's everywhere

    G  A       D
For anyone who cares

D                 Em
At the end of the rainbow

                   A
Turns out it's not somewhere

D                 Bm
Look around, it's everywhere

    G  A       D
For anyone who cares
[Outro] D Bm A G A D Bm A G A N.C. G D
