These chords reflect his version of the songs, as taught in my video tutorial, but of course, if you wanted a “Hawaiian” version of either of these songs by themselves (As was performed, for example by the Worthless Peons – seen in the TV Show, Scrubs), feel free to insert those lyrics using these chords.

 Performed By: Israel Kamakawiwo`ole

 C C Em Em F F C C
 ooh...    ooh...
 F F E7 E7 Am Am F F
 ooh...    ooh...

(Somewhere Over the Rainbow)
 C         Em               F      C
 Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
 F       C                        G              Am     F
 And the dreams that you dream of once in a lullaby
 C         Em               F          C
 Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly
 F       C                         G                     Am     F
 And the dreams that you dream of, dreams really do come true
     C                          G                                  Am   F
 Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
       C
 Where trouble melts like lemon drops
 G                              Am           F
 High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
 C         Em               F         C
 Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
 F       C                           G                 Am     F
 And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?

(What a Wonderful World)
             C       Em        F            C
 Well I see trees of green and red roses too,
 F               C         E7     Am
 I'll watch then bloom for me and you
       F                G                Am     F
 And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
            C        Em             F         C             F             C
 Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white and the brightness of day
 E7         Am          F               G                C        F    C
 I like the dark and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
     G                        C
 The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
     G                    C
 are also on the faces of people passing by
       F               C              F          C
 I see friends shaking hands saying, ³How do you do?
 F              C       Dm7             G
 They're really saying, I,      I love you
        C      Em        F          C
 I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
 F                  C     E7        Am
 They'll learn much more than we'll know
       F                G                Am     F
 And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

(Somewhere Over the Rainbow)
 C                              G                                  Am    F
 Someday I'll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
        C
 Where trouble melts like lemon drops
 G                              Am           F
 High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
 C         Em               F      C
 Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
 F       C                           G                 Am     F
 And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?
