RAINBOW CONNECTION - 5-string banjo

Note: this isn't the original Muppets arrangement. The original version is played 
on a 4-sting banjo, which is tuned differently than a 5-string. This version is 
easier to play on a 5-string and is tabbed from an arrangement I found here:

, 
             
and what's on 

           
the other side

    
?
            
Rainbows are v

            
isions, but on

     
ly illusions.
             
Rainbows have 

           
nothing to hid

So we've been 

told and some 

choose to beli

eve it.

I know they're

 wrong wait an

The lovers, th

d me.

l be heard and

 
 answered
             
and wished on 

        
a morning star

?
           
Somebody thoug

              
ht of that and

          
 someone belie

ved him.
             
Look what it's

What's so amaz

us stargazing?

What do we thi

nk we might se

e?

Chorus:
          
Some day we'll

The lovers, th

It's something
