1. Take me to the Emerald City, down yellow brick roads fast I run,

D Em D7 G D A7 D A7 D A D

scarecrow friends will dance beside me, tin toy brothers bright as sun.

A D A D A7 D A Bm E A

Take me to the Emerald City, wizards will give us lemonade,

D Em D G DEm D A7 D A7D D-A-D-A-D

It's a land of pleasures pretty, ruby roses never fade.

D Em D A7 D A D A7 D A

2. Children gather fragile flowers, stars will sing a lullaby,

D Em D7 G D A7 D A7 D A D

you're an angel, fly forever, living life behind the sky.

A D A D A7 D A Bm E A

Take me to the Emerald City, wizards will give us lemonade,

D Em D G DEm D A7 D A7D

It's a land of pleasures pretty, ruby roses never fade.

3. Rain, it falls like tinsel teardrops, rivers flow through jungles tall,

D Em D7 G D A7 D A7 D A D

witches watch through magic mirrors, frost and fog covers crystal balls.

A D A D A7 D A BmE A

Take me to the Emerald City, wizards will give us lemonade,

D Em D G DEm D A7 D A7D

It's a land of pleasures pretty, ruby roses never fade.

D Em D G DEm D A7 D A7D

it's a land of pleasures pretty, ruby roses never fade.
