 – /  – /  –  (2x)
 Something has changed  within me
 Something is not  the same
I’m  through with playing  by the rules of someone  else’s  game
Too  late for second  guessing
 Too late to go back  to sleep
 It’s time to trust  my  instincts
Close  my eyes
  and leap
It’s  time  to try  defying  gravity
 I think I’ll try  defying  gravity
 And you can’t pull me down
 – /  – /  –
 I’m through ac- cepting limits
 ‘Cause some- one says  they’re so
 Some things I cannot change
 But till  I try,  I’ll never  know
 Too long I’ve been afraid of
Losing  love I guess  I’ve lost
 Well, if that’s love
 It comes at much  too high a cost
I’d  sooner  buy  defy-  ing gravity
 Kiss me goodbye,  I’m defy-  ing  gravity
 And you  can’t pull me down
 Unlimited
 My future  is unlimited
 Un- li-  mi- ted
 And I’ve just had a vision  almost like  a prophecy
I  know  it  sounds truly crazy
 And true,  the vision’s hazy
But  I  swear, someday  I’ll  be  up in the  sky
 Defy- ing  gravity
 Flying so high,  defy-  ing  gravity
  F7sus [B5] – [F#]/[C#] - [B/D#] - [Esus2]
 They’ll never pull me down
 – /  – /  –
 So if you care  to find me
 Look to the western  sky
 As some- one told  me lately
 Every-  one  deserves the  chance  to fly
 And if I’m fly- ing  solo
 At least I’m flying  free
 To those who ground  me
 Take a message  back from me
 Tell them  how I  am de- fy- ing  gravity
 I’m flying high,  de- fy-  ing  gravity
 And soon I’ll match  them in re- known
 And nobody  in all  of Oz
 No wizard that  there is  or was
  (add9)/  /  Absus Ab7sus  – (add4)  – /
 Is ever gonna bring … me down
 – /  – (add2)/  – /
 Oh

[C#5] – [Ab]/[Eb] – [C#]/[F] – [F#sus2] (2x)

[C#5]   Something has [F#sus2]changed within me
[C#5]   Something is [F#sus2]not the same
[C#5]I’m through with [F#sus2]playing by the rul[C#]es [F]of [F#sus2]someone el[Cbsus2]se’s game

[Dbsus]Too late for sec[C#]ond guessing
[Cbsus2]     Too late to go [Dbsus]back to sleep [Db]
[F#5]    [Eb] It’s time to tru[F#5]st m[F]y instincts
[Db/Gb]Close my eyes       [Absus]
 and leap

[Ab]It’s t[Bbm7]ime to try[F#sus2]     de[Absus]fying    gravity
I think I’ll [Bbm7]try     de[F#sus2]fying  [Absus]  gravity
And you can’t pull me do[C#5]wn    [Ab]       [Eb]            [C#]               [F]                   [F#sus2]

[C#5] – [Ab]/[Eb] – [C#]/[F] – [F#sus2]

[C#5]   I’m [Ab]thr[Eb]ough [C#]ac-[F]  [F#sus2]cepting [Ab]limits
[C#5]  ‘Cause [Ab]som[Eb]e- [C#]one[F]  [F#sus2]says they’re [C#sus2]so
[C#5]   Some [Ab]thi[Eb]ngs [C#]I  [F]  [F#sus2]cannot [Ab]change
But [C#]til[F]l I [F#sus2]try, I’ll [Cbsus2]never know

Too long I’ve [C#5]been [Dbsus]afraid [C#]of
[Cbsus2]Losing love I [C#5]guess I’ve lost
[F#5]    [Eb] Well, if that’s lo[F#5]ve  [F]
It comes at mu[Db/Gb]ch too high a co[Absus]st

[Ab]I’d s[Bbm7]ooner buy [F#sus2]    def[Absus]y-    ing gravity
Kiss me good[Bbm7]bye, I’m de[F#sus2]fy-   in[Absus]g gravity
And [Ab7sus]you can’t pull me [Amaj9]down

Unlimited
My [B6]future is unlimited
[C#m9]   Un- [Amaj9]li-        [B6]    mi-  [Emaj7]ted
And I’ve just had a [Amaj9(#11)]vision almost [G#m11]like a prophe[C#m11]cy
[Bsus4]I     [A] k[Am6]now i[E/G#]t sounds truly c[Aadd9]razy
And [E/B]true, the vision’s [B9sus]hazy
[Gadd9]But I [Gmaj7]  swear, so[G6]meday I’l[Cmaj9]l be  [C6]   [Cmaj7]  up in th[Abm7]e sky
De[Esus2]fy-   [F#sus]ing gravity
Flying so [Abm7]high,   de[Esus2]fy-  in[F#sus]g gravity
        F
They’ll never pull me down

[C#5] – [Ab]/[Eb] – [C#]/[F] – [F#sus2]

[C#5]   So if you [F#sus2]care to find me
[C#5]   Look to the [F#sus2]western sky  [Ab]
[C#5]   As [Ab]som[Eb]e- [C#]one[F]  [F#sus2]told me [Ab]lately
E[Ebm]very[F#]- o[Ebm]ne deserv[C#]es [F]the cha[C#]nce to [Cbsus2]fly
And if I’m [C#5]fly- [Dbsus]ing so[C#]lo
[Cbsus2]     At least I’m [C#5]flying free
[F#5]    [Eb] To those who grou[F#5]nd m[F]e
Take a me[Db/Gb]ssage back from m[Absus]e

Tell th[Ab]em how [Bbm7]I am de-  [F#sus2]fy-    [Absus]ing gravity
I’m flying [Bbm7]high, de- [F#sus2]fy-   i[Absus]ng gravity
And soon I’ll [Ebm]matc[F]h them in [Fm7]re- [Bbm]known[F#m]    [A]
And [Absus]nobody[F#] in [Ab7sus]all of [F]Oz

No [Abm7]wizar[Eb]d  [Abm7]that    the[Eb]re [Ab9sus]is or  [C#]   [F#add9]was    [C#]
   [F#m](add9)/[A] [Ebm7] [B5] /[F#] Absus   Ab7sus [C#5] – [Ab](add4) – [C#]/[F]
Is ever        gonna       bring … me     down

[F#sus2] – [C#]/[F] – [B](add2)/[Bb] – [F#]/[B]

Oh[C#]
