(Elphie, listen to me - just say you're sorry...)
        D#        D#sus2    Bb
You can still be with the wizard

            D#         D#sus2 Bb
What you've worked and waited for

         D#                 Bb
You can have all you ever wanted

                              D#sus2           Bb         C
(I know...) But I don't want it - No - I can't want it anymore
[Verse 1]
C             F9
Something has changed within me

C            Fsus2
Something is not the same

C                F9             C
I'm through with playing by the rules

           Bb
Of someone else's game

Bbsus2        C
Too late for second-guessing

Bbsus2                  C
Too late to go back to sleep

     Bb       C
It's time to trust my instincts

F                 G
Close my eyes and leap
[Chorus]
             Am
It's time to try

F       G
Defying gravity

             Am
I think I'll try

F       G
Defying gravity

                       C  C* F  Fsus2
And you can't pull me down
[Post-Chorus]
                      C            C*        F          Fsus2
Can't I make you understand, you're having delusions of grandeur...? 
[Verse 2]
C             Fsus2
I'm through accepting limits

 C             Fsus2
'Cause someone says they're so

 C             Fsus2
Some things I cannot change

     F                Bb
But 'till I try, I'll never know

Bbsus2        C
Too long I've been afraid of

Bbsus2               C
Losing love - I guess I've lost

Bb               C
Well, if that's love

            F               G
It comes at much too high a cost 
[Chorus]
           Am
I'd sooner buy

  F     G
Defying gravity

            Am
Kiss me goodbye

      F       G
I'm defying gravity

                      Fsus2
And you can't pull me down...
[Post-Chorus] Glinda, come with me. Think of what we could do - together.
  F   C
Unlimited

                 F   C
Together we're unlimited

              Gm7              Em
Together we'll be the greatest team

             F     F9  F
There's ever been, Glinda,

C                 F
Dreams the way we planned them

C             F
If we work in tandem

Bbsus2/F            C#maj7  (Bbsus2/F )
There's no fight we cannot win
[Chorus]
             Am
Just you and I

   F    G
Defying gravity

            Am
With you and I

  F     G
Defying gravity

                       Fsus2
They'll never bring us down

                       G# 

[Post-Chorus]
(Well? Are you coming?)
Cmaj7
I hope you're happy

Bm
Now that you're choosing this

           Bb
(You too)- I hope it brings you bliss

  A
I really hope you get it

        Bb
And you don't live to regret it

Bmaj7                      D#
I hope you're happy in the end

D#                      Bb     Bbsus4  C   Csus4
I hope you're happy, my friend

C
So if you care to find me

Fsus2(F)
Look to the western sky

C          G
As someone told me lately

F          Fsus2                  Bb
Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly

           C            Bb
And if I'm flying solo

               C         Bb
At least I'm flying free

               C
To those who'd ground me

       Bb                G
Take a message back from me
[Chorus]
             Am
Tell them how I

     F     G
Am defying gravity!

           Am
I'm flying high

  F     G
Defying gravity!

              Am             Fsus2
And soon I'll match them in renown

    C         Fsus2
And nobody in all of Oz

   C                 Fsus2
No wizard that there is or was

   F          G        Am
Is ever gonna bring me down! (I hope you're happy)
[Post-Chorus]
                   F
Look at her she's wicked! Get her!

         Am
Bring me down!
(No one mourns the wicked)
           F  G  G#    Bb   C
So we've got to bring her down!
