Volare    (video)

 

      G                                                                             Am

    Sometimes the world is a valley of heartaches and tears,

       D                                                                    G

    and in the hustle and bustle, no sunshine appears.

      G                                                                      Am

    But you and I have our love always there to remind us,

       A                                A7                                   D

    there is a way we can leave all the shadows behind us.

 

        Am              - D       G    - D               Em

1. Volare, oh oh,      cantare,      oh oh oh oh !

            Am        D               G       - Em

    Let's fly way up to the clouds,

        Am                 D                G

    away from the maddening crowds.

                 Em

    We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of,

               Bm

    where lovers enjoy peace of mind,

               B7                                                           Em

    let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind.

                  Bm                                                               Bb  - D

    Just like birds of a feather, a rainbow together we'll find.

 

        Am            - D          G    - D                 Em    - G

2. Volare, oh oh,     e cantare,       oh oh oh oh.

           Am     D          G     - Em      Am         D         G

    Nel blu, dipinto di blu,               felice di stare lassu.

           Em                                               Bm

    E volavo, volavo felice piu in alto del sole ed ancora piu su,

                     B7                                                      Em

    mentre il mondo pian piano spariva lontano laggiu.

              Cm                                                 Bb  - D

    Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me.
