^CSomew^Amhere ^Emover the rainbow,^F ^Fmway up ^Chigh, ^Am ^FThere’^Fms a ^C land that I’^Amve heard^F of once i^G7n a l^Culla^G7by.

^CSome^Amwhere ^Emover the rainbow t^Fhe b^Fmluebirds f^Cly, so h^Amigh. ^FBirds ^Fmfly ^Cover the r^Amainbow, w^Fhy then oh ^G7why can’^Ct I?

^CSomeday I’ll wish upon a star ^D7And wake up where the clouds are far ^Gbehind me. ^G7

^CWhere troubles melt like lemon drops ^C5Away above the chimney tops—that’^Gs where you’ll^G7 find me.

^CSomew^Amhere ^Emover the rainbow^F the b^Fmluebirds f^Cly, so hig^Amh. ^FBirds f^Fmly o^Cver the ra^Aminbow, ^Fwhy then oh w^G7hy can’^Amt I? ^C7

^FWhy then oh ^G7why can’^Ct I?
