Intro: C Dm Am F  F/G G  C 

C        A7        Dm Dm7
When you wish up-on a star,
G7                  Cdim    C  
Makes no difference who you are,
C             Dm      Am F 
Anything your heart desires
     F/G  G       C 	Esus4/F G7
Will come to-oooo you.

C        A7      Dm      Dm7
If your heart is in your dream,
G7            Cdim   C  
No request is too extreme,
C               Dm   Am  F 
When you wish upon a star
   F/G   G   C 
As dream-ers do.


F         C   G             C
Fate is kind, she brings to those who love
Am            D                       Dm   G
The sweet fulfillment of their secret long-ing.


C      A7       Dm     Dm7
Like a bolt out of the blue,
G7                Cdim C   
Fate steps in and sees you through;
C               Dm    Am F
When you wish upon a star,
     F       G     C
Your dre-ams co-me tru-e.
