Your mother works so hard to make you happy But take a look outside your nursery door There's nothing at the end of the rainbow. There's nothing to grow up for anymore All the sad and empty faces That pass you in the street All running in their sleep, all in a dream Every loving handshake Is just another man to beat How your heart aches just to cut hiom to the core Life seems so rosy in the cradle, But I'll be a friend I'll tell you what's in store There's nothing at the end of the rainbow. There's nothing to grow up for anymore but I'll be a friend, I'll tell you what's in store There's nothing at the end of the rainbow There's nothing to grow up for anymoreDm Am F G Life seems so rosy in the cradle, Am G F G But I'll be a friend I'll tell you what's in store Dm Am F G There's nothing at the end of the rainbow. Am G F G There's nothing to grow up for anymore
