[F] [C] [G] [Am]
[F] [C]
Uh [Em] [F]
[C] oh.
[F]
[E] [Am]
[F] [G]
[C] somewhere [Em] over the [F] rainbow way [C] up high
And [F]
the [C] dreams that you dream of [G]
once in a [Am] lullaby
[F]
[Gm] Somewhere [C]
[Em] over the [F] rainbow [C] bluebirds fly
[F] And the [C]
dreams that you dream [G] of dream really do [Am] come true
[F] [C]
Someday you'll wish upon a [G] star, wake up where the clouds are far [Am] behind
[F] [C] Beware trouble melts like lemon [G] drops high above the chimney [Am] top
That's where [F] you'll find me, [C] oh somewhere [Em] over the [F] rainbow [C] bluebirds fly
[F]
And [C] the dreams that you dare to, [G] oh why, oh why [Am] can't I?
[F]
Well [C] I see trees of green [F] and red [C] roses too
[Am] I watch [C] them bloom, [E] fall, me [Am] and you [F] and I think to myself
[G]
What a [Am] wonderful world
[F] Well [C] I see skies of blue [F] and I see clouds of [C] white [F] and the [C] brightness of day
[E]
I [Am] like the dark and [F] I think to myself
[G]
What a [C] wonderful world
[F] [C]
The [G] colors of the rainbow [C] so pretty in the sky
Are [G] also on the faces [C] of people passing by
[F] I see friends [C] shaking hands [F] singing
How do [C] you do?
[F] They [C] really sing
[Dm]
I, I [G] love you
I [C] hear babies cry [F] and I watch [C] them grow
[F]
They'll learn [C] much more [E] than [Am] we'll know [F] and I think to myself
[G] What a [Em] wonderful [Am]
world
[F] [C] Someday you'll wish upon a star, [G] wake up where the clouds are far [Am]
behind
[F] [C] Beware trouble melts like lemon drops [G] high above the chimney top
[Am] That's where [F] you'll find me, oh [C]
somewhere [Em] over the rainbow [F]
way [G] up [C] high
[F] The [C] dreams that you dare to, oh [G] why, oh why [Am] can't I?
[F]
I, I, [C] oh
[Em] [F] [Bb] [C]
