G         D
Somewhere over the rainbow

C       G
Way up high

C        G
And the dreams that you dream of

D               Em   C
Once in a lullaby

G         D
Somewhere over the rainbow

C           G
Blue birds fly

C        G
And the dreams that you dream of

D                     Em     C
Dreams really do come true

G
Someday 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
High above the chimney tops that’s where you’ll

C
find me

G         D                C         G
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly

C       G
And the dreams that you dare to,

D                  Em     C
oh why, oh why can’t I?

G                    D         C         G
Well I see trees of green and Red roses too,

C               G         B7       Em
I’ll watch then bloom for me and you

C
And I think to myself

D                 Em    C
What a wonderful world

G                   D              C           G
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white

C                     G
And the brightness of day

B7           Em
I like the dark

C
And I think to myself

D                G    C   G
What a wonderful world

D                            Em
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky

D                        Em
Are also on the faces of people passing by

C                     G
I see friends shaking hands

         C           G
Saying, "How do you do?"

C              G        A7         D
They’re really saying, I...I love you

G             D          C          G
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,

C                  G
They’ll learn much more

B7          Em
Than we’ll know

C
And I think to myself

D                 Em    C
What a wonderful world

G
Someday I’ll wish upon a star

D                                Em     C
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me

G
Where trouble melts like a-lemon drops

D                                   Em
High above the chimney tops that’s where you’ll

C
find me

G          D
Somewhere over the rainbow

C       G
Way up high

C        G
And the dreams that you dare to,

D                  Em   C
oh why, oh why can’t I?
