[D] So tonight I'm singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow, not [G] the traditional version but one done by Britta Iz.
[D] He's a guy from Hawaii that did it with his ukulele and he just really magically really captured what the song [G] was all about.
And that is about, you know, hope and [D] dreams.
Dreams coming true and I think that's kind of what this week's all about.
We're trying to, you know, make a difference, make a change in the world.
And, [F#m] you know, we can.
Dreams do come true and so I hope this [G] inspires to dream big.

Oh,
[C] dreams that you dream [G] of dreams really do [Am] come true.
[F]
[C] Someday I wish upon a star [G] and wake up with the clouds far [Am] behind [F]
me.
[C] And where troubles melt like lemon [G] drops high above the chimney [Am] top, that's where [C] [F] you'll find me.
[C] Somewhere [Em]
over the [F] rainbow, [C] bluebirds fly.
[F] And the [C]
dreams that you dare [G] to dream really do [Am] come true.
[F] Oh, yes, dreams come [C] true.
I'll [F] [N]
tell you what.
I'll tell you what.
Dude, Jason Castro is back in the hunt.
That was the [Em] hottest so far tonight right [N] there.
That was blazing molten hot.
I was just saying to Simon that you have the most definitive sound and the guitar and that is such a great thing.
And you did a record.
No, honest to God.
It was the perfect song.
And I love that.
I love that version of the song.
You did a great job.
Jason, this is this version which is on the Internet by Israel, somebody, right?
Yeah.
Okay, because the first time I heard that version, I wasn't sure.
Second time, loved it.
Third time, fantastic.
