Over The Rainbow

Eva Cassidy
 GC
Someday I'll wish upon a star  
D G >> Em C D7sus D7
and wake up where the clouds are far behind me
 GF#7
Where troubles melt like lemon drops  
 BmD+Am7D7
away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me

(break, then repeat second section)

G >> Em Bm G7(III) C Cm(III) G G7 >> C
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
C Cm(III) G >> Em Am7 D7sus D7 G
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
 C
If happy little bluebirds fly  
D7 C5add9 Ab(IV) G(III)
above the rainbow, why oh why can't I?

Notes:

This is from the CD "The Other Side" by Chuck Brown and
Eva Cassidy (Liaison Records cbd02263). It's the best cover of
"Over the Rainbow" I've ever heard. Her version has a lovely,
melancholy jazz/blues feel, played on a classical guitar with
a legato fingerpicking style.

Roman numerals in parentheses indicated the fret for a barred chord.

The ">>" notation means to "walk" from the first chord to the second:

G >> Em G7 >> C

E---3--------0--|---1--------0---|
B---0--------0--|---0--1--3--1---|
G---0--------0--|---0--------0---|
D---0--------2--|---0--------2---|
A---2--------2--|---2--0--2--3---|
E---3---2----0--|---3------------|
