There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby ... I
G   G     Bm                   C          G
Somewhere over the the rainbow, bluebirds fly
C         G                      
And the dreams that you dream of,
  D                       Em     C
    dreams really do come true ... ooo

G
Some day I'll wish upon a star
D                                  Em   C
wake up where the clouds are far behind me
      G
where trouble melts like lemon drops

and high above the chimney top that's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the the rainbow, bluebirds fly

And if those bluebirds can fly there, why oh why can't I ... I

G              Bm        C         G
I see trees of green and red roses too
C               G         B7     Em
I'll watch them bloom for me and you,
     C               D                 Em        C
and I think to myself what a wonderful world ... world.
      G        Bm             C         G
I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
        C             G            B7          Em
and the brightness of day, well ... I like the night
     C               D                 Em        C
and I think to myself what a wonderful world ... world.

    D             D           Em
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
    D            D           Em
are also on the faces of the people passing by
     C                G             C           G
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"
C          G        C              D
Their really saying, "I ... I love you."
       G      D        Em           G
I hear babies cry, and I watch them grow ...
C                  G    B7             Em
They'll learn much more, than we will know,
     C               D                 Em        C
And I think to myself what a wonderful world ... world.

G
Some day I wish upon a star
D                                  Em   C
wake up where the clouds are far behind me
      G
where trouble melts like lemon drops

high above the chimney top that's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the the rainbow, way up high

Strumming pattern

  • D or U means a gentle Down strum or an Up strum ensuring that you either:
    • hit muted strings
    • or hit fewer strings
    • or, if you are really good, try hitting only the C string
  • d or u means a Down strum or an Up strum ensuring you so NOT hit any strings along the way
