For Good

(from "Wicked: For Good" soundtrack)

[Intro]
A
    A
I'm limited
               Dbm
Just look at me
                  Gbm
Not with your eyes,  with theirs
    E B E
I'm limited
                 A
And just look at you
           Abm            Dbm Am
You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda

Here, take it

What? But you know I, I can't read this, I—
                        E Gm
Well, you have to learn
        Gbm            Absus4 Ab
Because now it's up to you
 
For both of us
Dmaj7          Db
Now it's up to you

[Verse 1]
     Db       Gb
I've heard it said
            Db/F                      Gb
That people come into our lives for a reason
         Db                Ab
Bringing something we must learn
    Db    Gb
And we are led
             Fm7
To those who help us most to grow
      Bbm7
If we let them
       Eb           Ab
And we help them in return
Db              Gb          Gbm          Bbm
  Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
      A
But I know I'm who I am today
  Gbm     B
Because I knew you
 
 
[Chorus]
       Db                Gb
Like a comet pulled from orbit
               Db
As it passes a sun
       Db/F                Db
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Gb                  Ab
Halfway through the wood
Db        Ebm7             Fm              Bbm
  Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But
Gb          Db/F     Gb Db/F
  Because I knew you
Ebm Gb        Ab          Db   Gb Ab
I   have been changed for good
 
 
[Verse 2]
        Gb
It well may be
             Db
That we will never meet again
       Gb
In this lifetime
          Db            Ab
So let me say before we part
        Gb
So much of me
           Fm7
Is made of what I learned from you
    Bbm7
You'll be with me
       Eb/G            Ab
Like a handprint on my heart
Db/F       Gb                Gbm     Bbm
    And now whatever way our stories end
  A
I know you have re-written mine
   Gbm      B
By being my friend
 
 
[Chorus]
       Db/F                Gb
Like a ship blown from its mooring
                  Db
By a wind off the sea
                         Gb
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
B            Ab
In a distant wood
Db        Ebm7            Fm7              Bbm7
  Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But
Gb       Db/F
  Because I knew you
Gb       Db/F
  Because I knew you
Ebm         Gb  Ab      Gbm7
I have been changed for good
 
 
[Bridge]
            B         E
And just to clear the air
         Gbm7                                  B        E
I ask forgiveness for the things I've done you blame me for
Abm            B                     Db       Gb/Bb
   But then, I guess we know there's blame to share
    A                   Gbm       B
And none of it seems to matter anymore
 
 
[Chorus]
       Db                Gb
Like a comet pulled from orbit (Like a ship blown from its mooring)
      B        Db
As it passes a sun (By a wind off the sea)
       Db/F                Gb
Like a stream that meets a boulder (Like a seed dropped by a bird)
B               Ab
Halfway through the wood (In the wood)
Db        Ebm7             Fm              Bbm
  Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
Gb     Db                Ab              Bbm
I do believe I have been changed for the better
   Gb       Db
And  because  I knew you
Gb        Db
  Because I knew you
 
 
[Outro]
Gb          Db/F
  Because I knew you
Ebm         Gb  Ab  Db Gb
I have been changed
    Db   Gb Ab Db
For good
