Somewhere over the rainbow way up high

And the dreams that you dream of once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly
F C G Am F
And the dreams that you dream of, dreams really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Where trouble melts like lemon drops

High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
F C G Am F
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 E7 Am
I'll watch then bloom for me and you
F G Am F
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white and the brightness of day

I like the dark and I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colours of the rainbow so pretty in the sky

I see friends shaking hands saying, ??How do you do?
F C Dm7 G
They're really saying, I, I love you
C Em F C
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
F C E7 Am
They'll learn much more than we'll know

And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I can't seem to find a version of the song where "IZ" ends with that solo bit that you've got on the end. Did you come up with that on your own? If not mind showing me the version where he ends on that? Thanks! :]

Excellent tab. One comment though - I'm pretty sure the A9 you have in the intro should be an Am7. Thanks for the tab!

That's just how the site works, it's not allowed to put full lyrics on because of copywrite laws.

I'm with the others, best one out there! However, a question. Is the picking using a Low G tuning like Iz? Or standard?
