[Verse 1]
F Bb
When all the world is a hopeless jumble
Fmaj7 Gm7 C7
And the raindrops tumble all around
F F#dim A#maj7 Gm7 F
Heaven opens a magic lane
[Verse 2]
F Bb
When all the clouds darken up the skyway
Fmaj7 Em7 A7
There's a rainbow highway to be found
Dm Bb7 G Gm7
Leading from your windowpane
F Gm7
To a place behind the sun
F Gm7 C7
Just a step beyond the rain
[Chorus]
F Am F
Somewhere, over the rainbow
Bb Bbmaj7 F Fmaj7
Way up high
Bb Bbm F Fmaj7
There's a land that I heard of
Gm C7 F Bbmaj7 C6
Once in a lullaby
F Am F
Somewhere, over the rainbow
Bb Bbmaj7 F Fmaj7
Skies are blue
Bb Bbm F Fmaj7 Gm
And the dreams that you dare to dream
C7 F
Really do come true
[Verse 3]
F
Some day I'll wish upon a star
Fsus2 F6
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
F E7
Where troubles melt like lemon drops away above the chimney tops
C Gm F
That's where you'll find me
[Bridge]
F
When I think of home, I think of a place
Eb/F
Where there's love overflowing
F
I wish I were home, I wish I was back there
Eb/F
With the things I've been knowin'
Bb
Oh, If you're list'ning God
C/Bb
Please don't make it hard to know
Am7 D7
If we should believe in things that we see
Gm7
Tell us, should we run away
C9
Should we try and stay
Bb Eb/F
Or would it be better just to let things be?
F
Oh.....
Bb C/Bb
Living here, in this brand new world
Am7 D7
Might be a fantasy
Gm7 C7
But it taught me to love
Eb/F F
So it's real to me
Eb/G F7/A Bb
And I've learned
C/Bb Am7 D7
That we must look inside our hearts to find
Gm7
A world full of love
C/F Dm/E C#/Eb Eb9
Like yours and mine
F
Like home...
[Chorus]
Am F
Over the rainbow
Bb Bbmaj7 F Fmaj7
Blue birds fly
Bb Bbm F Fmaj7
Birds fly over the rainbow
Gm C7 F
Why then, oh, why can't I?
F
If happy little bluebirds fly
Fsus2
Beyond the rainbow
Gm C C7 F
Why, oh, why can't I?
