Over The Rainbow
Words & Music by E.Y. Harburg & Harold Arlen
Sung by Judy Garland in "The Wizard of Oz" 1939
A F#m C#m7 A7 D Cdim C#m7-5 A7
Some - where over the rainbow, way up high
D Dm A F#7
There's a land that I heard of
D9 E7 E7/6 A
Once in a lul - la - by.
A F#m C#m7 A7 D Cdim C#m7-5 A7
Some - where over the rainbow, skies are blue,
D D9 A F#7 D9
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Bm7-5 E7/6 A D9 A
Really do come true.
E7 A D9 Bm7-5 A
Some - day I'll wish up - on a star
D F#m Bm7 Bm7/E A6 D6 Cdim A6
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me,
E7 A E7/6 D9 A
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
B7 B7/F# Cdim B7
Away a - bove the chimney tops,
E7 Cdim E7 E7/9
That's where you'll find me.
A F#m C#m7 A7 D Cdim C#m7-5 A7
Some - where over the rainbow, blue - birds fly;
D Dm6 A F#7
Birds fly over the rainbow-
D9 Bm7-5 E7 E7/6 A D9 A E7
Why, then, oh why can't I?
E7 A D9 Bm7-5 AM7
If happy little blue - birds fly
D9 F#m Bm Bm7/E E7 E7-9 | A | D9 | BbM7 - Dm6 | AM7 |
Beyond the rainbow why, oh why can't I?
