Somewhere over the rainbow
F F C C
- Way up high
F F C C
And the dreams that you dream of
G G Am Am F F
Once in a lullaby...
- C C Em Em
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
F F C C
- Blue birds fly
F F C C
And the dreams that you dream of

Dreams really do come true...
- C C
Someday I'll wish upon a star

Wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Where trouble melts like lemon drops

High above the chimney tops
- Am Am F F
That's where you'll find me

Why oh why can't I...

Well I see trees of green

And red roses too

I watch them bloom for me and you

And I think to myself

Well I see skies of blue

And the brightness of day

I like the dark

And I think to myself

- What a wonderful world
- G G
The colors of the rainbow
- C C
So pretty in the sky
- G G C C
Are also on the faces of people passing by
- F F C C
See friends shakin hands saying
F F C C
"How do you do?"

- They're really sayin,'I, I love you."
- C C G G
I hear babies cryin'
- F F C C
And watch them grow
F F C C E7 E7 Am Am
They'll learn much more than we'll ever know

And I think to myself

- What a wonderful world

Someday I'll wish upon a star
