Elphaba, why couldn't you have stayed calm for once?
Instead of flying off the handle!
I hope you're happy!
[Cm] I hope you're happy now!
[B] I hope you're happy [A#] how you hurt your cause forever!
I hope you think you're [C] clever!
I hope you're [B] happy!
I hope you're [A#] happy too!
I hope you're proud how you [A] would go rattle in submission
[A#] to feed your own [B] ambition!
Some of though I can't [F#] imagine how!
[Cm] I hope [F] you're happy!
Right [A#] now!
Listen to [E] me!
Just say you're sorry!
You can [Am] still be with [B] the wizard
[E] What you've worked and [B] waited for
[C#m] You can have all you ever
[G#m]
I know.
But I don't want [E] it.
No.
[A] I [F#] can't want it
[G#m] [C#] Anymore.
Something has changed within me
[C#] Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
[F#] Someone else's game
Too late [C#] for second guessing
[F#] Too late to [C#] go back to sleep
[D#m] It's time [C#] to trust my instincts
Close my eyes
[G#] And leap
It's time to [C#] try [G#] defying gravity
I [A#m] think I'll [C#] try [G#] defying gravity
And you [C#] can't pull me down
Can't I make you understand
You're having delusions of grandeur
I'm through accepting limits
Cause someone said they're so
Some things I cannot change
But [F#] till I try I'll never know
Too [C#] long I've been afraid [F#] of
Losing love [C#] I guess I'm [D#m] lost
Well if [C#] that's love
It comes at much too high [G#] a cost
I'm through [A#m] trying [C#] [G#] defying gravity
Kiss me [A#m] good
[C#] And defying [G#]
gravity
And you can't pull [B] me
Glenna, come with me
Think of what we could do
Together
[F#] Unlimited
[D#] Together [D#m] we're [C#] Unlimited
[F#] [F#] Together we'll be [A#] the greatest team
[D#] There's ever [Bm] been
[F#] Glenna, dreams the way [B] we plan [F#] them
If we work [B] in tandem
[A]
There's no fight we cannot [Bm] win
[D] Just
[F#] [G#] defying gravity
With [A#m] you and [F#] I [G#] defying gravity
They'll never bring [C#] us down
Well, are you coming?
[A]
[Dm] [C#]
I hope you're happy
[Cm] Now that you're choosing this You [B] too
I hope it brings you bliss
[A#] I really hope you get it
And you don't live to [G] regret it
[C] I hope you're happy in the end
[C#m] I hope you're [F#] happy
[C] My [B] friend
[E]
[B] [C#]
So if you care to
Look to the west and hide
As someone [G#] told me lately
Everyone [C#] deserves a chance [A#m] to fly
[C#] And if I'm flying [F#] solo
At [C#] least I'm flying [D#m] free
To [C#] those who ground me
Take a messy [G#] backflip
I [A#m] [F#] am defying [G#] gravity
[A#m] [F#]
[G#] Gravity
[F] And soon I'll mash them in [A#m] real [F#m] loud
From [G#] nobody in all of [D#] us
No wizard that there is [C#] or was
[F#m] Is ever gonna [G#] bring us
[A#] Down
[A#m] [A#]
[E] [C]
[C#]
