Vocal Intro:   

G    D   C    G    C    B7    Em    Em   C    C   
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo   
    
G         D    
Somewhere over the rainbow    
C      G    
Way up high    
C        G    
And the dreams that you dreamed of    
D               Em   C    
Once in a lullaby    
G         D    
Somewhere over the rainbow   
C          G    
Blue birds fly    
C        G    
And the dreams that you dreamed of   
D                     Em     C    
Dreams really do come true    
G    
Someday I'll wish upon a star   
D                                   Em     C    
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me    
G    
Where trouble melts like lemon drops   
D                               Em            C    
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me    
G         D                C        G    
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly    
C       G                         D                  Em     C    
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?    
G                    D         Em        G    
Well I see trees of green and Red roses too,    
C               G         B7       Em    
I'll watch then bloom for me and you    
C    
And I think to myself   
D                 Em    C    
What a wonderful world    
G                   D              C          G    
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white    
C                     G    
And the brightness of day    
B7           Em    
I like the dark    
C    
And I think to myself   
D                G  C G   
What a wonderful world    
D                            Em    
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the skies   
D                        Em    
Are also on the faces of people going by   
C                     G    
I see friends shaking hands   
         C           G    
Saying, "How do you do?"    
C              G        C9         D    
They're really saying, I...I love you    
G             D          C         G    
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,    
C                  G    
They'll learn much more    
B7           Em    
Than we'll know    
C    
And I think to myself    
D                 Em    C    
What a wonderful world    
G    
Someday I'll wish upon a star    
D                                 Em     C    
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me    
G    
Where trouble melts like lemon drops    
D                                  Em           C    
High above the chimney tops that's where you'll find me    
G          D      C   
Somewhere over the rainbow   
C      G    
Way up high    
C        G                         D                  Em   C    
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?    

(G D Em C    G D Em Cadd9 C Cmaj7 G) Slowly fade out...
