This is my first tab ever. I hope all is correct. If not please tell.

Format:
Listen to song on youtube..

Capo 7th (alternatively 4th fret if you can't sing that high pitch). 
You can also transpose up 7 frets and remove the capo, if you disslike 
having it on (be aware that you'll have to play different chords in 
that case; starts with C instead of F).

Verse
F         Am
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bb         F
   Way up high
Bb       F
And the dreams that you dream of
C          Dm      Bb
Once in a lullaby...

     F        Am
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Bb             F
   Blue birds fly
Bb        F
And the dreams that you dream of
C                     Dm    Bb
Dreams really do come true...

     F
Someday I'll wish upon a star
C                                  Dm   Bb
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
      F
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
C
High above the chimney tops
       Dm           Bb
That's where you'll find me
    F         Am
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Bb             F
   Blue birds fly
Bb       F
And the dream that you dare to
C               Dm   Bb
Why oh why can't I...

     F
Someday I'll wish upon a star
C                                  Dm   Bb
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
      F
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
C
High above the chimney tops
       Dm           Bb
That's where you'll find me
    F         Am
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Bb          F
   Way up high
Bb       F
And the dreams that you dare to
Bb      C         Dm   Bb
Why oh why can't I

Intro part 2:
F  Am  Bb  F
Oooo, oooo, oooo...
Bb  A7  Dm  Bb
Oooo, oooo, oooo...
