HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to the WIZARD OF OZ! We will be singing a version of this song inspired by the Israel Kamakawiwoʻole version, which is now the most requested and dowloaded version of this song ever. There are so many versions of this beautiful song. At the Heathcote we will be creating our own version for the Circle of Friends Assembly on Sept. 27th where we will all sing this as a school.

Intro

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh, ooh ooh-ooh. Ooh-ooh, oh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh ooh-ooh.

Chorus

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high,

And the dreams that you dream of once in a lul-laby--- (y-y-y).

Oh, somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly.

And the dreams that you dream of

Dreams really do come true--- ooh-ooh-ooh.

Verse 1

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 top,

That's where… you'll find me, oh

Chorus

Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly

And the dream that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I--- (I - I - I)?

Verse 2

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 top,

That's where… you'll find me.

Chorus

Oh, somewhere over the rainbow, way up high,

And the dreams that you dare to

Why, oh why can’t I--- (I-I-I)?

Outro Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh, Ooh ooh-ooh….
