1′ 7 1′ 5′ 1′ 7 5
Some-thing has changed with-in me,

1′ 7 1′ 6 5 5
some-thing is not the same.

1′ 7 1′ (5’5) 1′ 7 5 1” 7′ (5’5) 1′ 1′ 2′ 2′
I’m through with play-ing by the rules of some-one else-‘s game.

4′ (4’4) 3′ 1′ 5 4 1′
Too late for sec-ond guess-ing,

4′ 4′ (4’4) 3′ (1’5) 6′ 5′
too late to go back to sleep.

4′ (4’1′) 3′ 2′ 1′ 1′ 5
It’s time to trust my in-stincts,

(4’1′) 3′ 2′ 1′ (5’5)
close my eyes and leap…

5′ 5′ 2” 1” 3′ (5’5) 1′ 3′ 2′ 2′
It’s time to try de-fy-ing grav-i-ty.

5′ 5′ 2” 1” 3′ (5’5) 1” 3′ 2′ 2′
I think I’ll try de-fy-ing grav-i-ty,

1′ 4′ 3′ (2’7) 1′ (1’5)
and you can’t pull me down.

5′ 4′ (3’1′) 4′ 3′ 1′ 5
I’m through ac-cept-ing lim-its

1′ 7 1′ (64) 5 (51)
’cause some-one says they’re so.

1′ 7 1′ (5’5) 1′ 7 5 1” 7′ (5’5) 6′ 1′ 2′ 2′
Some things I can-not change, but ’til I try, I’ll nev-er know.

(4’1′) 4′ 3′ 1′ 5 4 1′ (4’1′) 4′ 4′ 3′ 1′ 6′ 5′
Too long I’ve been a-fraid of los-ing love I geuss I’ve lost.

4′ (4’4) 3′ 2′ 1′ 1′ 5 (4’1′) 3′ 2′ 1′ 5′
Well, if that’s love, it comes at much too high a cost.

5′ 5′ 2” 1” 3′ (5’5) 1′ 3′ 2′ 2′
I’d soon-er buy de-fy-ing grav-i-ty.

5′ 5′ 2” 1” 3′ 4′ (5’5) 1” 3′ 2′ 2′
Kiss me good-bye, I’m de-fy-ing grav-i-ty,

1′ (4’1′) 3′ 2′ 1′ (1’5)
and you can’t pull me down.

2# 2#’ 2′ 6#
Un-lim-i-ted,

1′ 2′ 2#’ 4′
My fu-ture is

5 5’4′ 6#
un-lim-i-ted.

6# 1′ 2′ 2#’ 4′ 5′ 5#’ 4′ 2#’ 4′ 5′ 2#’ 2′ 2#’
And I’ve just had a vi-sion al-most like a proph-e-cy,

4′ 2#’ 6# 6# 6# 2′ 1′ 6#
I know it sounds tru-ly cra-zy,

5# 6# 6# 6# 5′ 4′ 2#’
and true, the vis-sion’s ha-zy,

6# 6# 6# 6#’ 4#’ 4′ 2#’ 4′ 4#’ 5#’ 6#’
but I swear some-day I’ll be up in the sky,

2′ 4′ 6# 2′ 1′ 1′
de-fy-ing grav-i-ty.

4′ 4′ 1” 6#’ 2′ 4′ 6#’ 2′ 1′ 1′
Fly-ing so high, de-fy-ing grav-i-ty,

6# 2#’ 2′ 1′ 6# 6#
they’ll nev-er pull me down.

1” 1” 1” 1” 1” 2” 1”
So if you care to find me,

1” 6′ 5′ (6’4’1′) 5′ 5′
look to the west-ern sky.

1′ 7 1′ (5’5) 1′ 7 5
As some-one told me late-ly:

2” 1” 4′ 6′ 6′ (5’5) 1′ 3′ (1”1′)
ev-‘ry-one de-serves the chance to fly!

4′ (4’1′) 3′ 4′ 3′ 2′ (1’5)
And if I’m fly-ing so-lo,

4′ (4’1′) 3′ 1′ 6′ (5’5)
at least I’m fly-ing free.

4′ 4′ 3′ 2′ 1′ (4’4) 3′ 2′ 1′ 5 1′ (5’5)
To those who’d ground me, take a mess-age back from me.

5′ 5′ 2” 1” 3′ 4′ (5’5) 1′ 3′ 2′ 2′
Tell them how I am de-fy-ing grav-i-ty.

(5’5) 5′ 2” 1” 3′ (5’5) 1” 6′ (5’7) 5′
I’m fly-ing high, de-fy-ing grav-i-ty,

2′ 2′ 3′ 4′ 3′ 2′ 5′ (1’5)
and soon I’ll match them in re-known.

1′ (4’2′) 3′ 2′ 1′ (4’2′) 3′ 2′
And no-bod-y in all of Oz,

1′ (4’2′) 3′ 2′ 1′ (4’2′) 3′ 2′
no Wiz-ard that there is or was

1′ 4′ (3’1’5) 2′ 1′ 2′ (2”2′) (1”3’5′)
is ev-er gon-na bring me down.

1” 3” 2” 1” 2” 1” (3”1”5′)
Ah!
