Standard (EADGBE)

Did that really just happen?

Have I actually understood?

This weird quirk I've tried

To suppress or hide

Is a talent that could

Help me meet the Wizard

If I make good

So I'll make, good;

When I meet the Wizard,

Once I prove my worth

And then I'll meet the Wizard

What I've waited for since,

Since birth!

And with all his Wizard wisdom,

By my looks, he won't be blinded.

Do you think the Wizard is dumb?

Or, like Munchkins, so small-minded?

No! He'll say to me,

"I see who you truly are -

A girl on whom I can rely!"

And that's how we'll begin

The Wizard and I

Same chords as verse 1 :)

Once I'm with the Wizard

My whole life will change

'Cuz once you're with the Wizard

No one thinks you're strange!

No father is not proud of you,

No sister acts ashamed

And all of Oz has to love you

When by the Wizard, you're acclaimed

And this gift or this curse

I have inside

Maybe at last, I'll know why

When we are hand in hand -

The Wizard and I!

And one day, he'll say to me, "Elphaba

A girl who is so superior,

Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside

Have a matching exterior?

And since folks here to an absurd degree

Seem fixated on your verdigris.

Would it be all right by you

If I

de-greenified you?"

And though of course,

That's not important to me.

"All right, why not?" I'll reply

Oh, what a pair we'll be

The Wizard and I;

Yes, what a pair we'll be

The Wizard and...

Same chords as verse :)

And I'll stand there with the Wizard,

Feeling things I've never felt.

And though I'd never show it,

I'd be so happy, I could melt!

And so it will be

For the rest of my life,

And I'll walk up the aisles

Till I die.

Held in such high esteem.

When people see me, they will scream

For half of Oz's favorite team;

The Wizard

And I
