Good news! The Witch, she's dead!

Come out, come out, she's gone!


Verse 1:

Good news

She's dead
    N.C.
The Witch of the West is dead

The wickedest witch there ever was

The enemy of all of us here in Oz

Is dead

Good news

Look! It's Glinda!

Let us be glad
          D
Let us be grateful
       E                                D
Let us rejoicify that goodness could subdue

The wicked workings of you-know-who
                 E
Isn't it nice to know?
D                      E
That good will conquеr evil?
D                         E  D      Bm
 The truth we all bеlieve'll by and by
          D
Outlive a lie

For you and—


Chorus:
F#m               D
No one mourns the Wicked
F#m                    D
   No one cries, "They won't return"
E              Bm            F#m
 No one lays a lily on their grave
                        D
The good man scorns the Wicked
F#m                         D
   Through their lives, our children learn
E             Bm      D    C#
 What we miss when we misbehave
             A                            G#m7 C#m7
And Goodness knows the Wicked's lives are lonely
         A                  G#m7 C#m7
Goodness knows the Wicked die alone
        F#m
It just shows, when you're wicked
       D                 C#m
You're left only on your own
              A                            G#m7 C#m7
Yes, Goodness knows the Wicked's lives are lonely
         A                     G#m7 C#m7
Goodness knows the Wicked cry alone
        F#m
Nothing grows for the Wicked
          D                 G#   F#
They reap only what they've sown


Instrumental:
     G#
Miss Glinda
         F#
Why does Wickedness happen?
G#
  That's a good question
F#                G#
  Are people born Wicked?
                F#
Or do they have Wickedness thrust upon them?
G#
After all, the Wicked Witch had a childhood
          D                     G            C                   G
She had a father, who by the way, had been appointed Governor of Munchkinland
                 C
I'm off to the assembly, dear
    G                    C          G C7
And she had a mother, as so many do


Verse 2:
      G
How I hate to go and leave you lonely
                     G             C7
That's alright, it's only just one night
    Bm7                         A7
But know that you're here in my heart
          D7          G
While I'm out of your sight
                A                              E
And, like every family, they had their secrets
             A
Have another drink, my dark-eyed beauty

I've got one more night left here in town
   D            A        E        A
So have another drink of green elixir
          B                             E
And we'll have ourselves a little mixer
      C#m                           B7
Have another little swallow, little lady
    E        A
And follow me down


Verse 3:
N.C.
And one thing led to another, as it so often does
N.C.
No!
E
 But from the moment the witch was born, she was, well, different
A
 It's coming

Now?
E
The baby is coming

Oh, and how!

I see a nose
        Bm
I see a curl
       E
It's a healthy, perfect, lovely, little—
D
Oh!
              Am
Oh! Sweet Oz! Oh!
           C#m
How can it be?

What does it mean?

It's uncanny

It's obscene

Like a froggy, ferny cabbage
              G#m
The baby is unnaturally
G
Green
F         C#m
 Take it away
Gm
  Take it away!

And so, it couldn't have been easy


Chorus:
Am                     F
  No one mourns the Wicked
Am                    F
  Now, at last, she's dead and gone
G                      Dm         D       E
 Now, at last, there's joy throughout the land
Em    Bm
  And Goodness knows
         C     Am
Goodness knows
   Bm                 Em
We know what Goodness is

Oh, ooh
         C         Am          Bm
Goodness knows the Wicked die alone
         Em
She died alone
       Am
Woe to those (Woe to those)
    F
Who spurn what Goodnesses
         D
They are shown
                  Em
No one mourns the Wicked


Outro:
     C    Em C

                  Em
No one mourns the Wicked
     C    Em
Good news
                         Bb
No one mourns the Wicked
