Eva Cassidy

Over The Rainbow

by Eva Cassidy
Eva Cassidy

Biography:

Eva Marie Cassidy (February 2, 1963 in Washington, DC – November 2, 1996 in Bowie, Maryland) was an American vocalist described by the British newspaper The Guardian as "one of the greatest voices of her generation." She had a diverse repertoire of jazz, blues, folk, gospel and pop. Cassidy remained virtually unknown outside of her native Washington, DC, when she died of melanoma (which had spread to her bones) in 1996. Her posthumously released recordings have since sold in excess of four million copies

There were a few Judy Garland versions of this floating around but they didn't sound
right to me so I've tweaked them and the result is here. I've filed this as Eva Cassidy
she in my opinion took possession of this song with her rendition.

I've put repeated chords to show the timing of how I play it:
Each chord is played downstroke, downstroke, upstroke


[Intro]

C G Em Am D G


[Refrain]

G G Bm Bm
Somewhere over the rainbow
C Cm G G7
Way up high
C Cm G Em
There's a land that I heard of
Am D G G
Once in a lullaby


G G Bm Bm
Somewhere over the rainbow
C Cm G G7
Skies are blue
C Cm G Em Am
And the dreams that you dare to dream
D G G
Really do come true


[Verse]

G G
Some day I'll wish upon a star
C Cm Em Em Em
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
G G
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
F#7 F#7
Away above the chimney tops
Bm Bm Am D
That's where you'll find me


[Refrain]

G G Bm Bm
Somewhere over the rainbow
C Cm G G7
Bluebirds fly
C Cm G Em
Birds fly over the rainbow
Am D G G
Why then, oh why can't I?


[Verse]

G G
Some day I'll wish upon a star
C Cm Em Em Em
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
G G
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
F#7 F#7
Away above the chimney tops
Bm Bm Am D
That's where you'll find me


[Refrain]

G G Bm Bm
Somewhere over the rainbow
C Cm G G7
Bluebirds fly
C Cm G Em
Birds fly over the rainbow
Am D G G
Why then, oh why can't I?

G G7
If happy little bluebirds fly
C
Beyond the rainbow
Am D G
Why, oh why can't I?
