Below is the lesson for “(Somewhere) Over the Rainbow” by Harold Arlen

Helpful Tips

Probably the most popular song on ukulele, “Over the Rainbow” is a classic. My arrangement leans heavily on Tommy Emmanuel’s version. If you haven’t heard of him, please check him out. He’s incredible!

The trickiest part of this arrangement is the change from Em to B7 (bars 31 & 32). The best way to practice chord changes is to do it over and over and over and over… You get the point. For these chord changes, try to move each finger at the same time as opposed to stacking them one by one.
