G 
One short day 
                                    F         G 
If you only have, if you only have one short day 
                    G C 
In the Emerald City 
        F     G   D G 
Emerald City 

          D#                G#/C 
There are buildings tall as Quoxwood trees 
A#/D 
Dress salons 
    D# 
And libraries 

Palaces 

Museums 
          F#/A# 
A hundred strong 
          F#                B/D# 
There are wonders lik I've never seen 
C#/F 
It's all grand 
    F#/A# 
And it's all green 
  G#sus                 G#               Bm  C# 
I think w've found the place where we belong 
        A#m           A#m     
I wanna be in this hoi polloi 
   G#m              A#m 
So I'll be back for good someday 
   
To make my life and make my way 
    G#m                           C# 
But for today, we'll wander and enjoy 

{No One Mourns the Wicked} 
G#m               E 
No one mourns the Wicked 
G#m                    E 
   No one cries, "They won't return" 
F#             C#m           G#sus4 
 No one lays a lily on their grave 
G#m                      E 
  The good man scorns the Wicked 
G#m                         E 
   Through their lives, our children learn 
F#            C#m     E    C# 
 What we miss when we misbehave 
                                         A#m7 D#m7 
And Goodness knows the Wicked's lives are lonely 
                           A#m7 D#m7 
Goodness knows the Wicked die alone 
        G#m 
It just shows, when you're wicked 
       E                 A#   G# 
You're left only on your own

Loathing 
                        
Unadulterated loathing 
N.C 
For your face 

Your voice 
              C# 
Your clothing 

Let's just say 
F# 
 I loathe it all 
                     C#   F# 
Every little trait, however small 
              G      A     D 
Makes my very flesh begin to crawl 
     C#            F# 
With simple, utter loathing 
                       
There's a strange exhilaration 
                   C# 
In such total detestation 
                 A#m    C# F# 
It's so pure, so strong 
               
Though I do admit, it came on fast 
              C#         F#      
Still, I do believe that it can last 
              G#m7 
And I will be loathing 
                    C#   D 
Loathing you my whole life long... 
D C# 
  Ah 
G# 
Loathing 
                        C# 
There's a strange exhilaration 
                    D# 
In such total detestation 
                 G# 
It's so pure, so strong 

So strong 
              C# 
Though I do admit, it came on fast 
              D#         G#     C# 
Still, I do believe that it can last 
              A#m7 
And I will be loathing for forever 
G# 
Loathing truly deeply 
C# 
Loathing you 

D#             G#   C# D#/G# 
 My whole life long
