Verse:
    G      D                 C      Em
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
 C        G                       D          Em          C
And the dreams that you dream of once in a lullaby
       G      D                 C         Em
Oh somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
 C        G                         D                    Em          C       
And the dreams that you dream of, dreams really do come true



   G
Someday i'll wish upon a star
D                                  Em   C
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
        G
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
D                                   Em           C
High above the chimney tops that's where you'll find me



       G      D                 C         Em
Oh somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
 C        G                          D                Em          C  
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?



I think you can figure out the rhythm it's not too hard.
Because this song is originally played on a baritone uke, i only tabbed the bottom 
four strings of a guitar (that's how baritone ukes are tuned) but, 
if you wish to play the whole chord, i'm sure it'll sound fine.
