Intro: C5 - C/F (2x)
       F - G

Glinda:
     C/E      Fmaj9
I’ve heard it said
F6/9             C/E
     That people come into our lives
      Fmaj9
For a rea- son
F6/9          C/E       Fsus2      G
     Bringing something we    must learn

    C/E     Fmaj9
And we  are led
F6/9              Em7
     To those who help us most to grow
      Am7
If we let them
       D/F#         Gsus     G
And we help them in re- turn

C/E         Fsus2
    Well, I don’t know
        Fm(maj7)       Am/E
If I be-lieve   that’s true
      Ab       Ebmaj7(no3)/Ab
But I know I’m who            I am today
   Fm7     Eb/Ab     Bbsus
Be-cause I knew  you

Bb        C/E           Fsus2
   Like a co-met pulled from  orbit
      Fmaj7(no3)/Bb      C
As it pas- - - - - ses a sun
       C/E               C/F
Like a stream that meets a   boulder
Bbsus2    Fsus2/A      G    G/F
Half- way  through the wood

C/E         Dm7
    Who can say
             Em7             Am(add2)
If I’ve been changed for the bet- - -ter
    Fsus2         C/E          F5
But       because I   knew you
C/E  Dm7    C/F    G5          C     C/F
     I   have been changed for good

Elphaba:
G    C/E      Fmaj9
  It well may be
             C
That we will never meet again
Em      Fmaj9
In this life- time
F6/9           C/E      Fsus2
     So let me say before   we part
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/wicked/for_good_crd_ver_2.html ]
G    C/E    Fmaj9    F6/9
  So much of      me
           Em7
Is made of what I learned from you
     Am7
You’ll be with me
       D/F#             Gsus   G
Like a hand-print on my heart

C/E         Fsus2
    And now       whatever way
    Fm(maj7)    Am
Our stor- - ies end
  Ab       Ebmaj7(no3)/Ab                Ab
I know you have           rewritten mine
   Fm7    Eb/Ab        Bbsus
By be-ing my    friend

Bb        C/E            Fsus2
   Like a ship blown from its  mooring
     Fmaj7(no3)/Bb         C
By a wind          off the sea
       C/E            C/F
Like a seed dropped by   a sky-bird
Bb(add9)      F6/A     G    G/F
In       a dis- - tant wood

C/E         Dm7
    Who can say

             Em7             Am7
If I’ve been changed for the bet-ter
    Fsus2         C/E
But       because I   knew you

Glinda:
        C/E
Because I   knew you

Both:
Dm7(add4)          C/F        G     Fm7
I         have been   changed   for good

Elphaba:
    Fm9     Bb        Ebmaj7/G
And just to clear the air
          Fm7
I ask for-give-ness
                         Fm9
For the things I’ve done
    Bb  Bb/Ab    Ebmaj7/G
You blame     me for

Glinda:
Gm7          Bb6
    But then I   guess we know
        Csus2 C/Bb    F/A
There’s blame      to share

Both:
    Ebmaj7(no3)/Ab
And none           of it seems
   Fm7(add4)        Fm7/Bb  Bb
To mat- - - ter any-more

(*NOTE ON THE FOLLOWING CHORUS:
These two parts- Elphaba’s & Glinda’s- are sung at the same time, in a round-like 
Here’s how it looks, without the chords (Glinda is lines 1 & 3, Elphaba is lines 2 & 4):

Like a comet pulled from or- -bit       As it pas- ses a sun
             Like   a    ship blown from  its moor-ing   By a wind off the
Like a steam that meets a    boul- -der            Halfway  through the  wood
Sea                     Like a seed   dropped by a bird    in      the wood

So basically, Elphaba starts on the word “pulled” in Glinda’s verse. Listen to the 
for help.*)

Elphaba:                                   Glinda:
Bb/Ab     C/E           Fsus2                 
                  Csus/Bb
Like  a com- et  pulled from  orbit     Like a    ship blown from its mooring
      Csus/Bb      C                    C
As it pas- - ses a sun                  By a wind off the sea
       C/E               Fsus2           Fsus2
Like a stream that meets a     boulder   Like  a seed dropped
Fsus2/Bb   Fsus2/A           G    
        Fsus2/Bb Fsus2/A         G  G/F
Half- - -way     through the wood        By a bird     in      the wood

Both:
C/E         Dm7
    Who can say

             Em7             Am7
If I’ve been changed for the bet-ter
Fsus2      C/E
      I do be- lieve
            G/D             Am
I have been changed for the bet-ter

Glinda:
    Fsus2         C/E
And       because I   knew you

Elphaba:
Fsus2         C/E
      Because I   knew you

Both:
Fsus2           C/E
      Because I knew you
Dm7(no5)           C/F     Gsus  C5
I        have been changed
C/F     C5   C/F  F(add2)  G  C(add2)
    For good
