Somewhere over the Rainbow (Arlen-Harburg)

Song of the last centaury I believe and why not. This version is just a combination of my playing style and a fantastically eternal tune and words.. It's the one I like singing most to myself in times of reflection.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

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 troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?

Oh, do I have to, agian? Well definately YES. This is why Mike is so fantastic - it's an iconic song that he's taken and made it different and wonderful.
