Rainbow Connection Chords
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:
