Somewhere over the Rainbow

C        Am         Em        C           F        F
Some-where over the rain-bow way up high, there´s a


C            A7        D7      G7    C   C      Am   Em         C
land that I heard of once in a lull-a-by.  Some-where o-ver the rain-bow


F         Em    F         C              A7      D7            G7
skies are blue, and the dreams that you dare to dream real-ly do come true,


C                            Dm                G7               C
Some-day I wish up-on a star and wake up where the clouds are far be-hind

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

This is a great traditional song from the "Wizard of Oz".
If you play it with a "BLUESY" feel, it really comes out
great. I've left out alot of the 'extra' chords which are
really not needed and makes the song sound "cluttered".
I've simplified the melody and included a guitar lead,
hope you enjoy it.
