"I'm Always Chasing Rainbows" is a popular Vaudeville song. The music is credited to Harry Carroll, although the melody is actually adapted from ''Fantaisie-Impromptu'' by Frédéric Chopin. The lyrics were written by Joseph McCarthy, and the song was published in 1917 and introduced in the Broadway show ''Oh, Look!'' which opened in March, 1918. The song was sung in the show by The Dolly Sisters.〔 Judy Garland sang it in the 1941 film ''Ziegfeld Girl''. It was subsequently sung by Jack Oakie in the 1944 film ''The Merry Monahans'' and was again featured in the 1945 film ''The Dolly Sisters'' (1945 in film), where it was sung by John Payne.〔 It was also included for part of the run (and in the cast album) of the 1973 revival of ''Irene''. The song is a true popular standard, recorded by many artists over the years. ==Lyrics== Why have I always been a failure? What can the reason be? I wonder if the world is to blame. I wonder if it could be me. I'm always chasing rainbows, Watching clouds drifting by. My schemes are just like all my dreams, Ending in the sky. Some fellas look and find the sunshine. I always look and find the rain. Some fellas make a winning some time. I never even make a gain. Believe me, I'm always chasing rainbows, Waiting to find a little bluebird, In vain.
