C   G    Am   F   F9   F
 
C   Em F   C
Oooo, oooo, oooo...
F  E7  Am   F

[Chorus]
C         Em
Somewhere over the rainbow
F        C
  Way up high
F       C
And the dreams that you dreamed of
G          Am     F
Once in a lullaby...
 
    C         Em
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
F             C
   Blue birds fly
F       C
And the dreams that you dreamed of
G                     Am   F
Dreams really do come true ooh ooh
 
    C
Someday I'll wish upon a star
G                                   Am   F
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
      C
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
G
High above the chimney top
       Am
That's where you'll find me
 
    C         Em
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
F            C
   bluebirds fly
F       C
And the dream that you dare to,
G                    Am   F
Oh why, oh why can't I...
 
 
[Verse 1]
            C        Em
Well, I see trees of green
F              C
and red roses too,
F               C         E7      Am
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
      F
And I think to myself
G                Am    F
What a wonderful world...
 
             C       Em
Well, I see skies of blue
          F         C
And I see clouds of white
        F             C
And the brightness of day
E7         Am
I like the dark
      F
And I think to myself
G                C     F   C
What a wonderful world
 
 
[Verse 2]
    G                     C
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
    G                    C
Are also on the faces of people passing by
      F               C
I see friends shaking hands
      F          C
Saying, "How do you do?"
F                C        Dm7              G
  They're really saying, "I...I love you."
 
       C      Em        F          C
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
F                    C     E7        Am
  They'll learn much more than we'll know
      F
And I think to myself
G                Am    F
What a wonderful world world
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Someday I'll wish upon a star,
G                                  Am   F
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
      C
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
G
High above the chimney top
       Am            F
That's where you'll find me
 
    C         Em
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
F         C
   way up high
F       C
And the dream that you dare to,
G                 Am F
why, oh why can't I? I
 
 
[Outro]
C     Em    F     C
Oooo, oooo, oooo, oooo,
F     E7    Am      F
Oooo, oooo, ooo-a-eh-a-a-a-a-a
