Lyrics
Something has (Gsus2)changed within me,
(D5)something is (Gsus2)not the same.
(D5)I'm through with (Gsus2)playing by the (D)rules of (Gsus2)someone (Csus2)else's game.
Too late for (Dsus)seccond guessing, (Csus2)too late to go (D5)back to sleep.
(G5)It's time to (G)trust my instincts,
(Gsus2)close my eyes and (Asus)leap...
It's time to try (Gsus2)defying (Asus)gravity.
I think I'll try
(Gsus2)defying (Asus)gravity, and you can't pull me (D5)down.
(D5)I'm (A)through (D)(Gsus2)accepting (A)limits (D5)'cause someone (Gsus2)says they're (Dsus)so.
(D5)Some (A)things (D)I (Gsus2)cannot (A)change, but (D)'til I (Gsus2)try I'll (Csus2)never know.
Too long I've (Dsus)been afraid of (Csus2)losing love I (D5)guess I've lost.
(G5)Well, if that's (G)love, it comes at (Gsus2)much too high a (Asus)cost...
I'd sooner buy (Gsus2)defying (Asus)gravity.
Kiss me goodbye, I'm (Gsus2)defying (Asus)gravity,
and (A7sus)you can't pull me (Bbmaj9)down.
Unlimited... My (C)future is (Dm)(Bbmaj7)(C6)(F)unlimited.
And I've just had a (Bbmaj7)vision almost (Am11)like a (Dm7)prophecy.
(Csus)I (Bbm)know (F)it sounds truly (Bb)crazy,
and (F)true, the vision's (C7sus)hazy...
(Ab)But I (Abmaj7)swear someday I'll (Dbmaj7)be (Db)up in the sky,
(Fsus2)defying (Gsus)gravity.
Flying so high,
(Fsus2)defying (G7sus)gravity, they'll never pull me (C5)down...
(D5)So if you (Gsus2)care to find me,
(D5)look to the (Gsus2)western (A)sky.
(D5)As (A)(D)someone (Gsus2)told me (A)lately:
(Em)Ev'ryone (D)deserves the chance to (Csus2)fly!
And if I'm (D5)flying solo,
(Csus2)at least I'm (D5)flying free.
(G5)To those who'd (G)ground me, take a (Gsus2)message back from (Asus)me...
(A)Tell them how I am (Gsus2)defying (Asus)gravity.
I'm flying high, (Gsus2)defying (Asus)gravity, and soon I'll (Em)match them (F#m7)in (Bm)renown...
(Gm)And (Asus)nobody in (A7sus)all of Oz,
no (Am7)Wizard that there (A9sus)is or was is (Gm9)ever (Em7)gonna (A7sus)bring me (D5)down...
(D)Ah!
