Somewhere Over the Rainbow / What a Wonderful World
as performed by: Israel Kamakawiwo`ole
C C Em Em F F C C
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
F F C C G G Am Am F F
And the dreams that you dream of once in a lul-la-by
Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dream of, dreams really do come true
C C G
Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the
G Am Am F F
clouds are far behind me
C C
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
G G Am Am F F
High above the chi-mn-ey tops that's where, you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?
C Em F C
Well I see trees of green and red roses too,
F C Em F
I'll watch then bloom for me and you
F F G G Am Am F F
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
C Em F C F C
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white and the brightness of day
E7 Am F G C F C C
I like the dark and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
G G C C
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
are also on the faces of people passing by
F C F C
I see friends shaking hands saying, "How do you do?"
F C Dm7 Dm7 G G
They're really saying, "I, I love you"
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
F C E7 Am
they'll learn much more than we'll know
F G Am Am F F
C C G G Am Am F F
Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
