"High Hopes" was written in 1959 by Jimmy Van Heusen and Sammy Cahn for the movie "A Hole in the Head", which starred Frank Sinatra and Edward G. Robinson. The song was sung by Sinatra and a children's chorus.

I have the tempo marked as "Pop Swing". Many Pop singers use a swing lilt to their phrasings, so I have adjusted attack and duration on many notes to achieve this feeling.

As in many of my recent pieces, you can use Composer commands to display the lyrics (qsl) or the chords (qscn).
