[Intro]
N.C.
Elphaba
N.C.
Why couldn't you have stayed calm for once
N.C.
Instead of flying off the handle?

I hope you’re happy
Cm
I hope you're happy now

I hope you're happy how you’ve hurt your cause forever

I hope you think you're clever
C
I hope you're happy
B
I hope you're happy too
A#
I hope you're proud how you would
A A#
Grovel in submission to feed your own ambition
B F#
So though I can't imagine how
Cm7 F A# D#
I hope you're happy right now
E
Elphie, listen to me
A
Just say you're sorry
E A B
You can still be with the Wizard
E A B
What you’ve worked and waited for

You can have all you ever wantеd

I know

But I don’t want it
F#m B G#m C# F#
No, I can't want it a--nymore
[Verse 1]
C# F#
Something has changed within mе
C# F#
Something is not the same
C# F#
I’m through with playing by
C# B
The rules of someone else's game
C#
Too late for second-guessing
B C#
Too late to go back to sleep
F# C#
It's time to trust my instincts
F# G#sus4 G#
Close my eyes, and leap
[Chorus]
A#m F# G#
It's time to try defying gravity
A#m F# G#
I think I’ll try defying gravity
C#
And you can't pull me down
[Verse 2]
F# C#
Can't I make you understand
F#
You're having delusions of grandeur?
C# F# G#
I'm through accepting limits
C# F# C#
'Cause someone says they're so
F# G#
Some things I cannot change
C#/F F# B
But 'til I try, I'll never know
C#
Too long I've been afraid of
B C#
Losing love, I guess I've lost
D#m C#/F
Well, if that's love
F# G#sus4 G#
It comes at much too high a cost
[Chorus]
A#m F# G#
I'd sooner buy defying gravity
A#m F# G#
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
B
And you can't pull me down
[Bridge]
N.C.
Come with me
F#
Think of what we could do together
F#
Unlimited
C# D#m B C# F#
Together, we're unli-mited
B A#m D#m Bm
Together we'll be the greatest team there's ever been, Glinda
F#/A# B
Dreams the way we planned 'em
F# B
If we work in tandem
A D
There's no fight we cannot win
[Chorus]
A#m F# G#
Just you and I defying gravity
A#m F# G#
With you and I defying gravity
C# F# E F# C#/F F#
They'll never bring us down
[Verse 3]

Are you coming?
I hope you're happy

Now that you're choosing this
You, too

I hope it brings you bliss

I really hope you get it
B
And you don't live to regret it
C G
I hope you're happy in the end
C#m F# B E
I hope you're happy, my friend
C#
No, leave her alone!
F#
She hasn't done anything wrong
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
It's me
It's me
[Verse 4]
C# F# C#
So if you care to find me
F# C#
Look to the western sky
F# G#
As someone told me lately
F# D#m C#/F C# B
"Everyone deserves the chance to fly"
C#
And if I'm flying solo
B C#
At least, I'm flying free
D#m C#/F
To those who'd ground me
F# G#sus4 G#
Take a message back from me
[Chorus]
A#m F# G#
Tell them how I'm defying gravity
A#m F# G#
I'm flying high, defying gravity
A#m F#m/B F#m
And soon, I'll match them in renown
[Outro]

B B/A
Unlimited
F# C#
And nobody in all of Oz
G#m C#
No wizard that there is or was
F#m C# G# A#m
Is ever gonna bring me down
I hope you're happy
Look at her! She's wicked!
Get her!
A#m
No one mourns the wicked (Bring me down)
F# E D C
So we've got to bring her
N.C.
Oh
