All right, all right, 
that's what I'm talking about!
Now, everyone give it up                  SOL7
For the maid of honor, Angelica Schuyler!

               DOm
A toast to the groom!

(To the groom, to the groom, to the groom)
       MIb/SIb
To the bride (to the bride!)

(To the bride, to the bride)
          FAm7
From your sister

(Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
       LAb
Who is always by your side

(By your side, by your side)
        DOm
To your union (to the union, to the revolution!)
        MIb/SIb
And the hope that you provide

(You provide, you provide)
        FAm7
May you always (always)
     LAb        SOL7
Be satisfied (rewind)

Rewind, rewind, rewind

Rewind, rewind, rewind

Helpless, skies... skies

Helpless, drowning... drowning

Rewind (Rewind)

DOm
 I remember that night, I just might (rewind)

I remember that night, I just might (rewind)

I remember that night I remember that-
DOm
 I remember that night, I just might

Regret that night for the rest of my days
MIb/SIb
 I remember those soldier boys

Tripping over themselves to win our praise
FAm7
 I remember that dreamlike candlelight

Like a dream that you can't quite place
LAb
 But Alexander, 
     SOL7/SI                                DOm
I'll never forget the first time I saw your face

I have never been the same
  MIb/SIb
Intelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame
    FAm7
And when you said "Hi, " I forgot my dang name
       LAb                        SOL7
Set my heart aflame, ev'ry part a flame

This is not a game

DOm
You strike me as a woman 

who has never been satisfied
MIb/SIb
 I'm sure I don't know what you mean

You forget yourself
FAm7
You're like me, I'm never satisfied
LAb7+
 Is that right?
SOL7                      DOm
 I have never been satisfied

My name is Angelica Schuyler
MIb/SIb
Alexander Hamilton
      
Where's your family from?
FAm7
 Unimportant, 

there's a million things I haven't done
LAb7+            SOL7/SI
 Just you wait, just you wait

So so so
DOm
 So this is what it feels like to match wits

With someone at your level! 

what the hell is the catch?
         MIb/SIb
It's the feeling of freedom, of seeing the light

It's Ben Franklin with a key and a kite

You see it right?
FAm7
 The conversation lasted two minutes, 

maybe three minutes

Everything we said in total agreement
LAb7+
It's a dream and it's a bit of a dance
  SOL7/SI
A bit of a posture, it's a bit of a stance
       DOm
He's a bit of a flirt, 

but I'mma give it a chance

I asked about his fam'ly, 

did you see his answer?
    MIb/SIb
His hands started fidgeting, he looked askance

He's penniless, 

he's flying by the seat of his pants
FAm7
Handsome, boy does he know it

Peach fuzz and he can't even grow it
LAb7+
 I wanna take him far away from this place
       SOL7/SI
Then I turn and see my sister's face and she is
DOm
Helpless

And I know she is
MIb
Helpless

And her eyes are just
MIb/SIb
Helpless
             LAb6  SOLm7
And I realize...

Parlato:
DOm
 Where are you taking me?
I'm about to change your life
Then by all means, lead the way

        DOm
(Number one!)

I'm a girl in a world in which

My only job is to marry rich
MIb
My father has no sons so I'm the one 

who has to social climb for one
           MIb/SIb
So I'm the oldest and the wittiest 

and the gossip in New York City is insidious
LAb6
 And Alexander is penniless
SOL7
Ha, that doesn't mean I want him any less

Parlato:
DOm
 Elizabeth Schuyler, it's a pleasure to meet you
Schuyler? My sister

DOm
 He's after me because I'm a Schuyler sister

That elevates his status
MIb
I'd have to be naive to set that aside
                 MIb/SIb
Maybe that is why I introduce him to Eliza

Now that's his bride
LAb                          SOL7
 Nice going Angelica, he was right, 

you will never be satisfied

Parlato:
DOm
 Thank you for all your service
If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, 
it will have been worth it
I'll leave you to it

DOm
 I know my sister like I know my own mind
         MIb
You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind
     FAm7
If I tell her that I love him 

she'd be silently resigned
       LAb7+
He'd be mine
                   SOL7
She would say "I'm fine", she'd be lying
DOm
 But when I fantasize at night, 

it's Alexander's eyes
MIb
 As I romanticize what might have been 
                 FAm7/4
if I hadn't sized

Him up so quickly
                             LAb7+
At least my dear Eliza's his wife
                                     SOL7
At least I keep his eyes in my life...

       DOm
To the groom!

(To the groom, to the groom, to the groom)
       MIb/SIb
To the bride!

(To the bride, to the bride, to the bride)
          FAm7
From your sister

(Angelica, Angelica)
       LAb            SOL7/SI
Who is always by your side

(By your side, by your side)
        DOm
To your union! (To the union, to the revolution)
        MIb/SIb
And the hope that you provide

(You provide, you provide)
        FAm7
May you always (always)
   LAb                     SOL7/SI
Be satisfied (satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)
      DOm7
And I know 

(be satisfied, be satisfied, be satisfied)
          MIb
She'll be happy as his bride 

(satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)
      FAm7
And I know 

(be satisfied, satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)
LAb7+
 He will never be satisfied
SOL7                      DOm
 I will never be satisfied
