Intro:
G D Em C 	G D Em Cadd9 C

G D C G 	C B7 Em C

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?
