[Verse 1]
 
       Asus2
Well I walked over the bridge
         Bsus4                   Asus2              Bsus4
into the city where I live and I saw my old landlord
        Asus2
Well we both said hello
          Bsus4
there was no where else to go
           C#m7           Bsus4   Asus2
'cause his rent I could't afford
 
     Asus2
Well relationships change
         Bsus4                        Asus2                  Bsus4
though i think it's kinda strange how money makes a man grow
         Asus2
Ah, some people they claim
       Bsus4
if you get enough fame
         C#m7     Bsus4    Asus2
you live over the rainbow
C#m7     Bsus4    Asus2
Over the rainbow
 
        Asus2
But the people on the street,
       Bsus4
Out on buses or on feet
       Asus2                 Bsus4
We all got the same blood flow
       Asus2         Bsus4
Oh in society every dollar got a deed
       C#m7             Bsus4    Asus2
We all need a place that we can go
         C#m7     Bsus4  Asus2
and feel over the rainbow
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Asus2            Bsus4         C#m7
Sometimes we forget what we got
            Asus2 Bsus4         C#m7
and who we are or who we are not
                 Asus2 Bsus4         C#m7 Bsus4 Asus2
I think we got a chance to make it ri      -         ght
        Asus2     Bsus4
Keep it loose
        E/G E/G#   A
keep it tight
        E/G E/G#   A
Keep it tight
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
       Asus2                     Bsus4
I'm in love with a girl who's in love with the world
          Asus2                  Bsus4
Thought I can't help but follow
         Asus2               Bsus4
Though I know someday she is bound to go away
         C#m7     Bsus4    Asus2
and stay over the rainbow
      C#m7         Bsus4      Asus2
Gotta learn how to let her go
C#m7     Bsus4 Asus2
over the rainbow
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Asus2                Bsus4       C#m7
But sometimes we forget who we got
          Asus2 Bsus4           C#m7
Who they are or who they are not
         Asus2             Bsus4                 C#m7 C#m7/B C#m7/A
There is so much more in love than black and white
             Asus2  Bsus4
Keep it loose child

Nice Job overall. The chord progression is correct, however the chord voicing is not. He plays the A and B chord variants at the 5th and 7th fret respectively.

Lyrics are different from original lyrics, very confusing
