C majorC     E minorEm        FF   C majorC
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
FF    C majorC            G+G       A minorAm   FF
And the dreams that you dream of once in a lullaby
C majorC     E minorEm        FF     C majorC
Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly
FF    C majorC             G+G           A minorAm   FF
And the dreams that you dream of, dreams really do come true
  C majorC             G+G                 A minorAm  FF
Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
   C majorC
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
G+G               A minorAm      FF
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
C majorC     E minorEm        FF     C majorC
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
FF    C majorC              G+G         A minorAm   FF
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?
      C majorC    E minorEm    FF      C majorC
Well I see trees of green and red roses too,
FF        C majorC     E minorEm   FF
I'll watch then bloom for me and you
   FF        G+G        A minorAm   FF
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
      C majorC    E minorEm       FF     C majorC       FF       C majorC
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white and the brightness of day
E7E7     A minorAm     FF        G+G        C majorC    FF  C majorC
I like the dark and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
  G+G            C majorC
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
  G+G          C majorC
are also on the faces of people passing by
   FF        C majorC       FF     C majorC
I see friends shaking hands saying, ³How do you do?
FF       C majorC    Dm7Dm7       G+G
They're really saying, I,   I love you
    C majorC   E minorEm    FF     C majorC
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
FF         C majorC   E7E7    A minorAm
They'll learn much more than we'll know
   FF        G+G        A minorAm
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
C majorC            G+G                 A minorAm  FF
Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
    C majorC
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
G+G               A minorAm      FF
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
C majorC     E minorEm        FF   C majorC
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
FF    C majorC              G+G         A minorAm   FF
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?
