Words & Music by Paul Williams & Roger Nichols
Originally performed by The Carpenters

D (xx0232@1)            F#m7 (131141@2) Day after day 
       G (320003@1)             AI (x02220@1)must face a world of strangers
        Bm9where (x2022x@1)I don't belong;
    Em7             G/A (320203@1)AI'm (x02220@1)not that strong.
D (xx0232@1)            F#m7 (131141@2) It's nice to know
             G (320003@1)           Athat (x02220@1)there's someone I can turn to
         Bm9who (x2022x@1)will always care;
       Em7          G/Ayou're (320203@1)always there.

CHORUS:
A (x02220@1)          D (xx0232@1)         C/D (x5555x@1)    G (320003@1)      Em7
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
A (x02220@1)     D (xx0232@1)           C/D (x5555x@1)           G (320003@1)   Em7
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
G/A (320203@1) D (xx0232@1)             C/D (x5555x@1)    G7 (320001@1)         D/F#I (200232@1)can take all the madness the world has to give,
      Em7        G/A (320203@1)         Dbut (xx0232@1)I won't last a day without you.
