Somewhere Over the Rainbow / What a Wonderful World
[Verse 1]
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me ee-ee-ee
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me
[Verse 3]
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby-y-y, y-y-y
[Verse 4]
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, that's where you'll find me
[Verse 5]
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh, why, oh, why can't I?
I-I-I
[Bridge]
I-I-I
[Verse 6]
Well, I see trees of green and red roses too
I watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
[Verse 7]
Well, I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day highlight the dark
And I think to myself
What a wonderful wo-o-orld
Wo-o-orld
[Bridge]
You'll find me
[Verse 8]
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh, why, oh, why can't I?
I-I-I
[Bridge]
You'll find me, oh
