John Mellencamp - Chasing Rainbows lyrics

[Verse 1] A long, long time ago When I used to chase rainbows I thought there was a pot of gold When I got to the end But there were many people there And I said, "What are you doing here?" They said they were looking for the end of the rainbow [Chorus] At the end of the rainbow Turns out it's not somewhere Look around, it's everywhere For anyone who cares [Verse 2] This world is full of fancy dreams And money can get you anything But that's not really true It's just make-believe As you walk down the streets of broken dreams Where some have lost everything While others are still looking for That easy pot of gold [Chorus] At the end of the rainbow Turns out it's not somewhere Look around, it's everywhere For anyone who cares [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Some people will go to any means To capture a shallow dream In this world of make-believe That we all believe is true When you get there, there's no place to go Just a lot of I-told-you-so's So take this love with you when you go To the end of the rainbow [Chorus] At the end of the rainbow Turns out it's not somewhere Look around, it's everywhere For anyone who cares At the end of the rainbow Turns out it's not somewhere Look around, it's everywhere For anyone who cares
