[Start]

[Chorus]
N.C.                                              
Elphaba why couldn't you have stayed calm for once
N.C.                            
Instead of flying off the handle
N.C.               
I hope you're happy
N.C.                   
I hope you're happy now
B                              A#                     
I hope you're happy how you've hurt your cause forever
B                             
I hope you think you're clever
C                  
I hope you're happy
              C        
I hope you're happy too
A#                                A                   
I hope you're proud how you would grovel in submission
   A#            B       
To feed your own ambition
                          C#sus4 Cm7
So though I can't imagine how    ■  
              F7          F7  A# D#m
I hope you're happy right now ■  ■  
                    E                      
Elphie listen to me ■ just say you're sorry
                          B     
You can still be with the wizard
E                  A          B  
What you've worked and waited for
E       C#                G#m7  
You can have all you ever wanted
                 Esus4
But I don't want it   


[Verse]
   A         F#m7    Bsus4 G#m7    C# F# C#
No ■ I can't want it ■     anymore ■  ■  ■ 
F#                              C#
Something has changed within me ■ 
C#                       
Something is not the same
                                         F#             B   
I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game
             C#            
Too late for secondguessing
B              C#      D#m7 
Too late to go back to sleep
                      D#m7     
It's time to trust my instincts
C#       F#maj7 F#maj7 G#  
Close my eyes   and    leap


[Chorus]
             F#          G#     
It's time to try defying gravity
             F#          G#     
I think I'll try defying gravity
              C#          
And you can't pull me down


[Verse]
F#               C#        
Can't I make you understand
                           F#      
You're having delusions of grandeur
            G#              
I'm through accepting limits
C#     F#                   C#
'cause someone says they're so
            F#       G#    
Some things I cannot change
C#             B              
But 'til I try I'll never know
         C#                 
Too long I've been afraid of
                         D#m7
Losing love I guess I've lost


[Chorus]
                             C#               G# G#sus4
Well if that's love it comes at much too high a  cost  
    A#m        F#      G#     
I'd sooner buy defying gravity
        A#m     F#  G#             
Kiss me goodbye I'm defying gravity


[Bridge]
              B           
And you can't pull me down
       B           
Glinda come with me
B                                 
Think of what we could do together


[Chorus]
C#        D#m            F#       
Unlimited Together we're unlimited
               B                                 D#m 
Together we'll be the greatest team there's ever been
       F#                B          
Glinda dreams the way we planned 'em
F#         Bmaj7 A     
If we work in    tandem
                    Dmaj7  D   Dmaj7
There's no fight we cannot win ■    
               F#      G#     
Just you and I defying gravity
         A#m7  F#      G#sus4 
With you and I defying gravity
                       C#  
They'll never bring us down


[Verse]
                    A Asus4
Well are you coming ■ ■    
C#                     Cm
■  I hope you're happy ■ 
                              B
Now that you're choosing this ■
                     A#   
I hope it brings you bliss
A#                      
I really hope you get it
        A#                     
And you don't live to regret it


[Chorus]
C                          G   C#m7
I hope you're happy in the end ■   
              F#7   F# B E         C# F#
I hope you're happy ■  ■ my friend ■  ■ 
C#                   F#   C#
■  So if you care to find me
            F#      C# 
Look to the western sky
                G#        F#
As someone told me lately ■ 
D#m      C#                        
Everyone deserves the chance to fly
       C#             
And if I'm flying solo
   C#                   
At least I'm flying free
D#m7         C#       
To those who ground me
               G#        C# G#sus4
Take a message back from me ■     
          A#m7  F# G#             
Tell them how I am defying gravity
    A#m    A#m7 A#m  G#             
I'm flying ■    high defying gravity
                            F7     A#m
And soon I'll match them in renown ■  
    F#        C#       
And nobody in all of Oz
                     C#       
No wizard that there is or was
        F#    C#    G# A#m 
Is ever gonna bring me down
       A#     A#m   A#
I hope you're happy ■ 
A#m   E D        
Bring ■ ■ me down
   C#
Oh ■
