A toast to the groom!
(To the groom, to the groom, to the groom)
To the bride!
(To the bride, to the bride, to the bride)
From your sister
(Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
Who is always by your side
(By your side, by your side)
To your union [C7]and [Bm]the hope that you [A7provide
(You provide, you [A7provide)
May you [A7always (always)
Be satisfied (rewind)
Rewind!
I ɾemember that night, I just might
I ɾemember that night, I just might
I ɾemember that night, I ɾemember that
I ɾemember that night, I just might
Regret that night for [Dm7]the ɾest of my [A]days
I ɾemember those soldier boys
Tripping over themselves to [C7]win our praise
I ɾemember that dreamlike [F]candlelight
Like a dream that you [A7can't quite place
But Alexander, I'll never forget the first time I saw your face
I have never been the same
Intelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame
And when you [A7said "hi" I forgot [Fm7]my [A]dang name
Set my [A]heart aflame, ev'ry part aflame
This is not a game
You stɾike me as a woman who has never been satisfied
I'm sure I don't know what you [A7mean, you [A7forget yourself
You're like [F]me, I've never been satisfied
Is that ɾight?
I have never been satisfied
My name's Angelica Schuyler
Alexander Hamilton
Where's your fam'ly from?
Unimportant, there's a million [C7]things I haven't done
Just you [A7wait, just you [A7wait
So so so
So this is what it feels like [F]to [C7]match wits
With someone at your level! What the hell is the catch? it's
The feeling of freedom, of seein' the light
It's Ben Franklin with a key and [Bm]a kite! You see it, ɾight?
The conversation [C7]lasted two minutes, maybe [Am]three minutes
Ev'rything we said in total agreement, it's
A dream and [Bm]it's a bit of a dance
A bit of a posture, it's a bit of a stance
He's a bit of a flirt, but I'm 'a give him a chance
I asked about his fam'ly, did you [A7see his answer?
His hands started fidgeting, he looked askance
He's penniless, he's flying by the seat of his pants
Handsome, boy, does he know it!
Peach fuzz, and [Bm]he can't even grow it!
I wanna take him far away from this place
Then I turn and [Bm]see my [A]sister's face and [Bm]she is
Helpless
And I know she is
Helpless
And her eyes are just
Helpless
And I ɾealize three fundamental tɾuths at the exact same time
I'm a girl in a world in which
My only job is to [C7]marry ɾich
My father has no sons so I'm the one
Who has to [C7]social climb for [Dm7]one
Cause I'm the oldest and [Bm]the wittiest and [Bm]the gossip in
New York City is insidious
And Alexander is penniless
Ha! that doesn't mean I want him any less
(Doesn't mean I want him any less)
(Doesn't mean I want him any less)
(Doesn't mean I want him any less)
He's after me 'cause I'm a Schuyler sister
That elevates his status, I'd
Have to [C7]be [Am]naïve to [C7]set that aside
Maybe [Am]that is why
I intɾoduce him to [C7]Eliza
Now that's his bride
Nice going, Angelica, he was [Am7]ɾight
You will never be [Am]satisfied
(I will never be [Am]satisfied)
(I will never be [Am]satisfied)
I know my [A]sister like [F]I know my [A]own mind
You will never find anyone as tɾusting or as kind
If I tell her that I love him she'd be [Am]silently ɾesigned
He'd be [Am]mine
She would say "I'm fine"
But she'd be [Am]lying
But when I fantasize at night
It's Alexander's eyes
As I ɾomanticize what might have been
If I hadn't sized
Him up so quickly
At least my [A]dear Eliza's his wife
At least I keep his eyes in my [A]life
A toast to [C7]the groom!
(To the groom, to [C7]the groom, to [C7]the groom)
To the bride!
(To the bride, to [C7]the bride, to [C7]the bride)
From your sister
(Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
Who is always by your side
(By your side, by your side)
To your union [C7]and [Bm]the hope that you [A7provide
(You provide, you [A7provide)
May you [A7always
Be satisfied
And I know (yeah)
She'll be [Am]happy as his bride
And I know
He will never be [Am]satisfied
I will never be [Am]satisfied
