D5 G5
Something has changed within me
D5 G5
Something is not the same
D5 G5 D5
I'm through with playing by the rules
G5 C5
Of someone else's game
C5 D5
Too late for second-guessing
C5 D5
Too late to go back to sleep
C5 B5
It's time to trust my instincts
G5 A5 (start strumming) A5
Close my eyes and leap
(chorus 1)
B5
It's time to try
G5 A5
Defying gravity
B5
I think i'll try
G5 A5
Defying gravity
D5
And you can't pull me down
(verse 2)
D5 G5
I'm through accepting limits
D5 G5 A5
'cuz someone says they're so
D5 G5
Some things i cannot change
D5 C5 A5
But 'till i try, i'll never know
C5 D5
Too long i've been afraid of
C5 D5
Losing love - i guess i have lost
G5 D5
Well, if that's love
C5 A5
It comes at much too high a cost
(chorus 2)
B5
I'd sooner buy
G5 A5
Defying gravity
B5
Kiss me goodbye
G5 A5
I'm defying gravity
D5
And you can't pull me down
(transition)
C5 G5
And if i'm flying solo
C5 D5
At least i'm flying free
C5 G5
To those who'd ground me
C5 A5
Take a message back from me
(repeat chorus/outro)
B5
Tell them how i
G5 A5
Am defying gravity
D5
I'm flying high
G5 A5
Defying gravity
B5
Tell them how i
G5 A5
Am defying gravity
D5 (slow down stroke)
And you can't pull me down
