I am 100% sure that this is 100% correct, since I got it from the Wicked music
book that Stephen Schwartz wrote so... ya... All the credit goes to him, I just typed it up.
Intro:
Verse 1 (Glinda):
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
/
Bringing something we must learn.
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow,
If we let them,
And we help them in return.
(maj7)
Well I don't know if I beleive that's true,
(no3rd)/
But I know I'm who I am today
/ Bbsus
Because I knew you...
Chorus:
Like a comet pulled from orbit
(no3rd)/
As it passes a sun,
Like a stream that meets a boulder
/
Halfway through the wood,
(add2)
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you,
I have been changed for good.
Verse 2 (Elphaba):
It well may be
/
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part:
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you,
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart.
(maj7)
And now whatever way our stories end,
(no3rd)/
I know you have re-written mine
/ Bbsus
By being my friend...
Chorus:
Like a ship blown from its mooring
(no3rd)/
By a wind off the sea,
Like a seed dropped by a sky bird
/
In a distant wood,
Who can say
If I've been changed for the better?
But
Because I knew you...
[Glinda]
Because I knew you...
[Both]
I have been changed for good.
