The wizard and i Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Oh, [Daug]miss Elp[F#]haba[D]
Many years I [Daug]have waited
For a [D]gift like yours to ap[Daug]pear
Why, I pre[D]dict the wizard might [F#]make
you his ma[Bm]gic [C]grand visir
My [D]dear, my [G]dear

[Verse 2]
I'll write at [A]once to the [D]wizard[G]
Tell him of [A]you in [D]ad vance
[Em]With a talent like yours, dear[F#m]
[Bm]There is a [C]definite chance
If you work as you [Em]should
[C]You'll be [D]mak[C]ing goo[E]d[Abaug][E]
[Abaug]Welcome to Shiz[F#][F#aug]
[F#][F#aug]

[Verse 3]
[Daug][F#aug]
Did [Gb]that really just [Daug]happen?
[Ebm]Have I actually understood?
This weird [Gb]quirk I've tried
[Ebm]to suppress [Daug]or hide
Is a tal[Ebm]ent that could he[Gb]lp me[Gbaug]
meet the [B]wiz[Abm]ard
If [Db]I make go[A#m]od[F#][A#m][E]
So I'll make [Bb]good[Eb]
[Bb][Eb]

[Verse 4]
[Bb]When I mee[Eb]t the wizard[Bb]
[Eb]Once I prove my [F]worth
[Bb]And then I meet the [Gm]wizard
What I've [Cm]waited for [Fsus4]since, si[F]nce birth

[Verse 5]
And [Bb]with all his [Eb]wizard [Bb]wisdom
By my looks, he won't be [Dm]blinded
Do you [Ab]think the wizard is [Bb]dumb?
Or like [Ab]Munchkins,
so [Fm]small- [F]minded? No!
He'll say to [Cm]me,
"I see who [F]you [Bb]truly are
A girl on [Cm]whom I can [F]rely"
And [Bb]that's how we'll [Eb]begin
The wizard [Bb]and I[Cm]
[F][Bb][Cm][F]

[Verse 6]
[Bb]
Once [Cm]I'm with [Fsus4]the wizard[F]
[Bb]My whole[Cm] life [F]will change
[Bb]'Cause once you're with the [Gm]wizard
[Cm]No one thinks you're s[F]trange

[Verse 7]
No, [Bb]father is [Cm]not proud [Fm]of you
[Fsus4]No, siste[Bb]r acts asham[Dm]ed
And [Ab]all of Oz has to l[Bb]ove you
When by the [Ab]wizard you're ac[F]claimed
And this [Gm]gift [Cm]or this curse
[F]I have ins[Dm]ide
[Gm]Maybe [Cm]at last, I'll kn[Fsus4]ow why[F]
As we [Cm]work [Bb]hand in [Eb]hand
The wizard [Gm]an d I[G]

[Verse 8]
And [C]one day, he'll say to [Bm]me
[A]"Elphaba, a gir[C]l who is so sup[Bm]erior
[Eb]Shouldn't a girl who's so good[Dm] inside
[Cm]Have a matching exte[Dm]rior?
And [Bb]since folk[Bbsus4]s here to[Db]
an ab[Eb]surd de[Ab]gree
[Db]Seem fixated on [Eb]your verdi[Ab]gris
[B]Would it be alright by [Bbsus4]you[Bb]
If [Abm]I de- [Bbsus4]greenify you?"[Bb]

[Verse 9]
And [Gm]though, of course,
[Cm]that's not im[F]portant to [Bb]me
"Al[Gm]right, why [Cm]not?" I'll [F]reply
Oh, [Bb]what a pair we'll [Eb]be,
the wizard an[Gm]d I[Cm][F]
Yes, what [Bb]a pair we'll be,[Eb]
the wizard and-
[A]

[Verse 10]
[E]Unlimited[A]
My future [C#m]is unlim[A]ite[E]d
And I've just had a vis[A]ion,
almost like [G#m]a proph[C#m] ecy
[F#dim]I know,[Am]
[E]it sounds truly [A]crazy[Bsus4]
And [E]true, the vision's [A]hazy[Bsus4]
But I swear, someday there'll be
A [E]celebration throughout [D#aug]Oz
[B]That's all[Bsus4] to do wi[B]th
[Ab]me!
[Fm]

[Verse 11]
[Bbsus4][Bb]
And I'll [A]stand [Bm]there
with the [Esus4]wizard
[A]Feeling things I've [Bm]never [Em]felt[E]
[A]And though I'd never [E]sho[F#m]w it
I'd be so [Bm]happy, I [Esus4]could mel[E]t
And [F#m]so it will be[Bsus4]
[E]for the rest of [A]my life
And I'll want [Bm]nothing else
'til [Esus4]I die[E]
Held [A]in such high es[D]teem[Dsus4]
[D]When people see[Bb] me, they will scre[Eb]am
For half of Oz's[Bb]favorite
[F#aug]team[F#][Ebm][F]
The wizard [Cm]and I
