[Verse 1]

D              F#m7
  Day after day
       G               A
I must face a world of strangers
        Bm9
where I don't belong;
    Em7             G/A  A
I'm not that strong.
D              F#m7
  It's nice to know
             G             A
that there's someone I can turn to
         Bm9
who will always care;
       Em7          G/A
you're always there.


[Chorus]

A            D           C/D      G        Em7
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
A       D             C/D             G     Em7
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
G/A   D               C/D      GM7          D/F#
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
      Em7        G/A           D
but I won't last a day without you.

F#m7 G  G/A  A  D F#m7  D/F#  G  G/A  G


[Verse 2]

D              F#m7
  So many times
         G             A
when the city seems to be
          Bm9
without a fiendly face,
  Em7           G/A  A
a lonely place,
D              F#m7
  it's nice to know
            G             A
that you'll be there if I need you,
           Bm9
and you'll always smile;
     Em7             G/A
it's all worth while.


[Chorus]

A            D           C/D      G        Em7
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
A       D             C/D             G     Em7
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
G/A   D               C/D      GM7          D/F#
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
      Em7        G/A           D    A/C#
but I won't last a day without you.


[Bridge]

Bm9      D/E   E/G#   A       A/C#
Touch me and I end up singing.
Bm9              E7               F#sus  F#
Troubles seem to up and disappear.
    G#m7     C#7                  F#
You touch me with the love you're bringing.
D#m7           E                F#sus  F#
I can't really lose when you're near.
             Em7  A7
(when you're near my love.)


[Verse 3]

D                F#m7
  If all my friends
           G              A
have forgotten half their promises,
            Bm9
they're not unkind,
     Em7          G/A  A
just hard to find.
D               F#m7
  One look at you
G                       A
and I know that I could learn 
               Bm9
to live without the rest,
     Em7            G/A
I've found the best.


[Chorus]

A            D           C/D      G        Em7
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
A       D             C/D             G     Em7
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
G/A   D               C/D      GM7          D/F#
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
      Em7        G/A           D
but I won't last a day without you.

[Outro]

A            D           C/D      G        Em7
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
A       D             C/D             G     Em7
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
G/A   D               C/D      GM7          D/F#
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
      Em7        G/A   (break)
but I won't last a day
           D
without you.
