Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Look out beyond the [D] city skyline,
[Em] Dreaming of places we’ve [C] never known.
[G] We’re searching for some [D] kind of sign,
[Em] The echoes of a future [C] yet to be shown.
(Chorus)
[G] We’re just chasing rainbows,
[D] Hoping to find the [Em] gold.
[C] In a world that’s spinning so fast,
[G] We’re holding on to the [D] past,
[Em] And the stories left untold [C].
(Verse 2)
[G] The sun sets, and the [D] city sleeps,
[Em] We’re still awake, lost in [C] our dreams.
[G] In the silence, our secret [D] keeps,
[Em] A symphony of hope in the quietest [C] screams.
(Chorus)
[G] We’re just chasing rainbows,
[D] Trying to steal the [Em] show.
[C] In the deafening roar of the crowd,
[G] We’re singing our truths out [D] loud,
[Em] On a stage we’ve come to [C] know.
(Outro)
[G] So here’s to chasing rainbows,
[D] And the dreams we’ve yet to [Em] sow.
[C] For as long as our hearts beat true,
[G] There’s nothing Babyish Virtue [D] can’t do,
[Em] Together we’ll weather through, [C]
[G] Chasing rainbows [D], oh [C] oh oh.
