Ab                             C/Ab
Did that really just happen?

Ab                                C/Ab
Have I actually understood?

Ab
This weird quirk I've tried

     C/Ab
To suppress or hide

       Fm/Ab
Is a talent that could

Ab        Ab #5                 Db
Help me meet the Wizard

  Bbm7  Eb/G        Cm
If I make good

Gb                 C  Dm  G7
So I'll make, good;

C      Dm           G7        G
When I meet the Wizard,

C      Dm            G7            C
Once I prove my worth

    C    C/B                                    Am
And then I'll meet the Wizard

          Dm            C/F Gsus
What I've waited for since,

           G  
Since birth!

            G/C   C       Dm/C        G7/C           G             
And with all his Wizard wisdom,

              C                              Em
By my looks, he won't be blinded.

              Bb/F                             C/G
Do you think the Wizard is dumb?

              Bb/F                                 G
Or, like Munchkins, so small-minded?

                 Am
No! He'll say to me,

Dm              G/B              C/E
"I see who you truly are -

Am                    Dm         Gsus        
A girl on whom I can rely!"

  G       C   Dm7 C/E                      F 
And that's how we'll begin

                            C   Dm   G
The Wizard and I

C      Dm           G7        G
Once I'm with the Wizard

C      Dm           G7        G
My whole life will change

    C    C/B                                    Am
'Cuz once you're with the Wizard

          Dm            C/F Gsus
No one thinks you're strange!

C              Dm           Gm7        
No father is not proud of you,

 C               C/B               Em
No sister acts ashamed

F/Bb                   Csus2     F/C
And all of Oz has to love you

C               F/Bb           Bbmaj7       Gsus
When by the Wizard, you're acclaimed

            G     Am7         Dm7          
And this gift or this curse

G/B           C/E
I have inside

Am7     Dm7     Gsus            G
Maybe at last, I'll know why as 

C     Dm7  C/E
we are hand in hand -

Fsus    F               Amaj7
The Wizard and I!

          Dmaj                                        C#m11
And one day, he'll say to me, "Elphaba

     Dmaj9                     C#m11
A girl who is so superior,

Fmaj9                                          Em7
Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside

Dm                         Em
Have a matching exterior?

Cm                                 Bb/Eb        F     Bb/D
And since folks here to an absurd degree

Cm              Bb/Eb       F       Bb/D
Seem fixated on your verdigris.

            Db                        Csus C
Would it be all right by you

   Bbm7 Csus      C
If I ….. de-greenified you?"

Am       
And though of course,

Dm                G/B                C
That's not important to me.

Am                    Dm          G
"All right, why not?" I'll reply

C    C/D C/E                             F
Oh, what a pair we'll be

                           Am  Dm  Gsus
The Wizard and I;

         C          Dm    C/E       
Yes, what a pair we'll be

F
The Wizard and...

Bmaj9#11                        
Unlimited

    Ebm  Bmaj9  Gbmaj9/Db       
My future is unlimited

                                Bmaj9  
And I've just had a vision

Bbm11            Ebm11     
Almost like a prophecy

Abdim/Db        Gb/Db       Db9sus
I know - it sounds truly crazy

        Gb/Db                Db9
And true, the vision's hazy

A9      Amaj7           A6     Dmaj
But I swear, someday there'll be

Gb/Db           F/Db              
A celebration throughout Oz

B/Db             Bbsus  Bb       Bbsus  Bb       Gm7 Gm9     Bbmaj7/C   C7
That's all to do with me!

B                       Bsus/C#  Bsus/F#
And I'll stand there with the Wizard

B       Bsus/C#  Bsus/F#
Feeling things I've never felt

B       Bsus/Bb    G#m7    Bsus/Ab
And though I'd never show it

Abm7       Dbm  B/E         F#sus   F#
I'll be so happy, I could melt!

Abm7   B/Db    
And so it will be

F#/Bb       B/Eb
For the rest of my life

G#m7      Bsus/C#       
And I'll want nothing else

F# 
Till I die

           B  C#m7 B/D#        Esus
Held in such high esteem

  E       C   Dm7   C/E                  F
When people see me, they will scream

F           C    Csus/D  C/E          Fm/Ab
For half of Oz's fav'rite team:

G7
The Wizard

C    Dm7   G   Am9   am   Fmaj Db (add #4)   B (add b6)     C   
And I!
