Transcribed by Randy Goldberg

When all the world is a hopeless jumble

And the raindrops tumble all around

Heaven opens a magic lane

When all the clouds darken up the skyway

There's a rainbow highway to be found

Leading from your windowpane

To a place behind the sun

Just a step beyond the rain

Somewhere, over the rainbow

Way up high

There's a land that I dreamed of

Once in a lullabye

Somewhere, over the rainbow

Skies are blue

And the dreams that you dare to dream

Really do come true

Some day I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far

behind me

Where laughter falls like lemon drops away above the chimney tops

That's where you'll find me

Somewhere, over the rainbow

Skies are blue

And the dreams that you dare to dream

Really do come true

If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow

Why, oh, why can't I
