C C Em Em
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
G G Am Am F F
Dreams really do come true...

C C
Someday I'll wish upon a star
G G Am Am F F
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
C C
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
G G
High above the chimney tops
Am Am F F
That's where you'll find me

C C Em Em
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
F F C C
- Blue birds fly
F F C C
And the dream that you dare to
G G Am Am F F
Why oh why can't I...

C C G G
Well I see trees of green
F F C C
And red roses too
F F C C E7 E7 Am Am
I watch them bloom for me and you
F F
And I think to myself
G G Am Am F F
- What a wonderful world

C C G G
Well I see skies of blue
F F C C
And I see clouds of white
F F C C
And the brightness of day
E7 E7 Am Am
I like the dark
F F
And I think to myself
G G C C F F C C
- 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?"
F F C C Dm Dm G G
- 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
F F
And I think to myself
G G Am Am F F
- What a wonderful world

C C
Someday I'll wish upon a star
G G Am Am F F
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
C C
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
G G
High above the chimney tops
Am Am F F
That's where you'll find me

C C Em Em
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
F F C C
- Way up high
F F C C
And the dreams that you dare to
F F G G Am Am F F
Why oh why can't I

C C Em Em F F C C
Oooo, oooo, oooo, oooo…
F F E7 E7 Am Am F F
Oooo, oooo, oooo, oooo…

Note that the X should be a percussive tap on uke rather than a chuck, but either works.
