Somewhere over  the rainbow way     up  high

There's a       land    that I heard of once    in a lullaby

Somewhere over  the rainbow skies   are blue

Where troubles melt like lemon drops 
                                    Bm    D+     Am7  D7 
away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me

Somewhere over  the rainbow     skies    are blue 
C   Cm G    Em             Am7       D7sus     D7     G 
And the     dreams that you dare to dream    really do come true 
                              C 
If happy little bluebirds fly 
                          D7        C5add9  Ab  G 
above the rainbow, why oh why can't I?

Lyrics

Chorus1
Somewhere over the rainbow, Way up high
Thers a land that I heard of once in a lullaby

Chorus2
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream 
Really do come true

Verse
Someday I'll wish upon a star and
Wake up where the clouds are behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chilly tops
Thats where you'll find me

Instrumental Break

Chorus 3
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I

Chorus 4
Somewhere over the rainbow, Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Wyhy then, oh why can't I

Outro
If happy bluebirds fly above the rainbow, why, oh why can't I
