Wizard and I
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/C G7/C
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 G
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...
Arrpegio .... Db F Gb Bb
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:
