Somewhere over the the rainbow, way up high
C         G                   D               Em     C
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
    D                                  Em           C
and high above the chimney top that's where you'll find me
G   G     Bm                   C          G
Somewhere over the the rainbow, bluebirds fly
C            G                      D                  Em    C
And the dreams that you dare to .. oh why oh why can't I ... I
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.
