[Verse: Elsie Lovelock]
At the end of the rainbow, there's happiness
And to find it, how often I've tried
But my life is a race, just a wild goose chase
And my dreams have all been denied
Why have I always been a failure?
What can the reason be?
I wonder if the world's to blame
I wonder if it could be me

[Chorus: Elsie Lovelock]
I'm always chasing rainbows
Watching clouds drifting by
My schemes are just like all my dreams
Ending in the sky

[Bridge: Elsie Lovelock]
Some fellows look and find the sunshine
I always look and find the rain
Some fellows make a winning sometime
I never even make a gain, believe me

[Chorus: Elsie Lovelock]
I'm always chasing rainbows
Waiting to find a little bluebird in vain
