Capo 6
G Cadd9
Somewhere just over the rainbow
D G
Lie answers to all our dreams
G Cadd9
But the road we must follow to reach them
D G
Is paved with much anguish and grief
There's heartache around every corner
That lurks like a thief in the night
Hiding silently deep in the shadows
Making victims of those passing by
Chorus:
Cadd9 D G Cadd9
On this highway of dreams that we travel
D G
There's no exit for easy street
Bm Cadd9
It's rough and it's rocky and weathered by tears
Am C/B Cadd9 D
And it's been no exception for me
G Cadd9
But I know it's the right road I've taken
D D/F# G
Cause it's lead me somehow to your heart
Bm Cadd9
And I may never have fallen for you
D G
If I hadn't reached for the stars
In the curves we meet pain and rejection
At times it's so hard to be strong
But just when I think about turning around
You give me strength to go on
Chorus
