[Intro] E G#
E G#
Oh, Miss Elphaba
[Primeira Parte]
E G#
Many years I have waited
E G#
For a gift like yours to appear
E G#
Why, I predict the Wizard might make you his
C#m
Magic grand vizier
E A
My dear, my dear
B/A E
I'll write at once to the Wizard
A B/A E
Tell him of you in advance
F#m G#m C#m
With a talent like yours, dear, there is
D/F# E
A definish chance
D F#m
If you work as you should
D E D/F# F# D
You'll be making good
F# D G# C
Welcome to Shiz!
[Segunda Parte]
G# C
Did that really just happen?
G# C# F C
Have I actually understood?
G# C
This weird quirk I've tried to suppress or hide
Fm G# C#
Is a talent that could help me meet the Wizard
Bbm D# D#m G# F#
If I make good
C F C F
So I'll make good
C F
When I meet thе Wizard
C F G
Once I prove my worth
C Am
And then I meet thе Wizard
Dm G
What I've waited for since, well, since birth
C F
And with all his Wizard wisdom
C Em
By my looks, he won't be blinded
Bb C
Do you think the Wizard is dumb?
Bb G
Or, like Munchkins, so small-minded? No!
[Refrão]
Am7 Dm7 G C
He'll say to me, "I see who you truly are
Am7 Dm7 G
A girl on whom I can rely"
C C/E F
And that's how we'll begin
C Dm7 G C Dm7 G
The Wizard and I
[Terceira Parte]
C Dm G
Once I'm with the Wizard
C Dm G
My whole life will change
C Dm Am
'Cause once you're with the Wizard
Dm7 G
No one thinks you're strange
C Dm7 Gm7
No father is not proud of you
C Em
No sister acts ashamed
Bb C
And all of Oz has to love you
Bb G
When, by the Wizard, you're acclaimed
[Refrão]
Am7 Dm7 G C
And this gift or this curse I have inside
Am7 Dm7 G
Maybe, at last, I'll know why
C F
As we work hand in hand
A
The Wizard and I
[Refrão]
D C#m7
And one day, he'll say to me, "Elphaba
D C#m7
A girl who is so superior
F Em7
Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside
Dm7 Em7
Have a matching exterior?
C D# F Bb
And since folks here to an absurd degree
C D# F Bb
Seem fixated on your verdigris
C# C
Would it be alright by you
Bbm7 C
If I de-greenify you?"
[Refrão]
Am7 Dm7 G C
And though, of course, that's not important to me
Am7 Dm7 G
"Alright, why not?", I'll reply
C F
Oh, what a pair we'll be
Am7 Dm7 G
The Wizard and I
C F
Yes, what a pair we'll be
B
The Wizard and—
[Ponte]
F#
Unlimited
D#m7 B C# F#
My future is un-limi-ted
B F# D#m
And I've just had a vision, almost like a prophecy
Bm F#
I know it sounds truly crazy
C# B
And true, the vision's hazy
A D
But I swear, someday, there'll be
F# F
A celebration throughout Oz
C# Bb Gm7 C7
That's all to do with me
[Quarta Parte]
B C#m F#
And I'll stand there with the Wizard
B C#m F#
Feeling the things I've never felt
B G#m7
And though I'd never show it
C#m7 F#
I'd be so happy I could melt
[Refrão]
G#m C#m F#m D#m
And so it will be for the rest of my life
G#m C#m F#
And I'll want nothing else 'til I die
B E
Held in such high esteem
C F
When people see me, they will scream
C G#
For half of Oz's favorite team
C Dm G Am
The Wizard and I
