[G] Somewhere [Bm] over the rainbow [C] skies are [G] blue [C] And [Cm] the [G] dreams that you [Em7] dare to [Am] dream really [D7] do come [G] true. [G] Someday I&wish upon a star And [Am]wake up where the clouds are far [Em7]behind me [Am][D] Where [G] troubles melt like lemon drops [FAway above the chimney tops That&[Bm] where you&[Am] find [D7] me. [G] Somewhere [Bm] over the rainbow, [C] Bluebirds [G] fly. [C] Birds [Cm] fly [G] over the [Em7] rainbow. [Am] Why, then oh [D7] why [G] can&I? [G] If happy little bluebirds fly [Am] beyond the rainbow Why oh [D7] why can&[G] I? I do not own the copyright to the original song.
