Chords for Lea Salonga Reflection Mulan Live @ East West Players Awards Hollywood 042709

award in 2002 and we are so pleased, so happy, so glad, so proud [N] to welcome her back.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Ms.
Laila Salonga. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Good evening _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ everyone.
No, I am not intoxicated, I am jet-lagged. _
_ Whatever comes out [C] of my mouth, I will not be responsible.
[B] _ _ I would first like [Bb] to thank Tim Dang and everybody at East West Players for inviting [Db] me back to the [C] Visionary Awards
and to thank you once again for the one I received in [E] 2002.
I would like to congratulate all the winners of this [G] year's Visionary Awards.
You [Bb] guys are awesome!
_ _ _ And so I would like to, and the [Eb] Walt Disney people are sitting right in front of me, so hopefully I'm [Ab] going to see reflection. _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] And this is why I just might get in trouble.
_ _ _ In 1995, when production [B] of Mulan was, here's a little bit of the backstory, I know Ted Benito likes to listen to this one.
_ [E] _ _
In 1995, _ _ I was called [C] in for the first of three recording sessions for Mulan.
_ The first session I got to sing this huge, majestic number called Reflection.
It [N] was long, it was beautiful, it was long, and as a singer I love singing long songs. _
Having come from a [Gm] musical theater background, the next year, [E] session number two,
_ _ _ I think it was one of the animators and one of the composers that actually had to sit me down and say,
_ [Eb] your song wasn't really moving [B] the story along, so we had to cut it in half.
_ _ [Gb] And of course I'm [Gb] heartbroken.
_ _ So, the finished version is, _ so, _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] and this is going to be in spite [N] of Walt Disney rousing from the grave to kick me in the ass. _ _ _ _ _
Whenever I have opportunities like [D] this to sing Reflection,
_ _ [E] I sing the long, long, long, long version. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Please [C] don't get mad at me, center table.
This [D] is Reflection from Walt Disney's Mulan.
[Gm] _ _ Look _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ at me, [D] I will never _ pass for [Gm] a perfect bride _ or a [C] perfect _ [F] daughter.
Can it be?
_ [Dm] I'm not meant to play [Eb] this role. _ _
_ _ [Ab] I _ assume [Fm] that if I were truly [Bbm] to be _ myself, _ _ [Bb] I would break my _ [Eb] family's _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ heart.
I _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ _ _ see [Ebm] you staring [Db] _ [Dbm] straight _ back at [Ab] me.
_ [Eb] What is my _ [Db] reflection?
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Gb] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ebm] _ Who [Db] do I have?
[Dbm] Who do I try?
_ [Ab] When [Fm] will [Eb] my [Db] _ reflection _ show?
_ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] If _ _ _ [A] time will come, I [G] can free myself [Gm] and meet their [C] expectations.
_ [Bbm] [Cm] On that _ [Fm] day, I'll discover some [Bbm] way to be _ myself [Bb] and to make my _ [Ab] family _ _ _ proud. _
He _ _ _ _ _ _ _ knows [Fm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ebm] _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _
who I am.
_ [Eb] [Cm] Must there [Ab] be a [Db] secret I need?
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ebm] _ _ [Db] Someone [Dbm] else for all time.
[Cm] When [Ab] will my _ [Db] reflection _ _ [Dbm] show who I _ [Fm] am?
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
Thank you very much.
