This is my own personal arrangement. I got it by slightly simplifying the
piano sheet music, and putting it in a better key (G). Note that my version
also doesn't modulate a half-step up at the end. (Do _you_ want to play in
A flat?)

THE RAINBOW CONNECTION
(As sung by Kermit the Frog on The Muppet Movie Soundtrack.)
This is a simplified version in a nice acoustic key, D.
It's really in A or B, I'm not sure which.
All of the chords move 1 half step up at the key change, but I
left the end of the song in the same key to keep it simple.
(You may just want to slide up your capo at that point...)

Here is a correction for rainbow_connection by the muppets. This song was
first uploaded by howell@cae.wisc.edu. The chords and lyrics are right, but
here are the changes to make it the correct key:
Change all of the D's to A's (D = A)
F#m = C#m
G = D
A = E
Bm = F#m
B7 = F#7
