Biography:
Dear Evan Hansen is nothing short of a Broadway sensation. With music and lyrics written by Benji Pasek and Justin Paul and book written by Stephen Levenson, the still-running 2015 musical tells the story of a lonely young man, the epnonymous Evan Hansen (played by Ben Platt until November 2017) tells a viral lie that escalates to crippling heights and serves as a commentary on our social media obsessed culture and tendency to selfishly wear other people's tragedies.

[Intro]
F# 8 beats
B 4 beats
C# 4 beats
[Verse 1]
{ZOE}:
B F#
I don’t need you to sell me on reasons to want you
B F#
I don’t need you to search for the proof that I should
D#m B
You don’t have to convince me
C#/F F# Bb B
You don’t have to be scared you’re not enough
B C#
‘Cause what we’ve got going is good
B F#
I don’t need more reminders of all that’s been broken
B F#
I don’t need you to fix what I’d rather forget
D#m B
Clear the slate and start over
C#/F F# Bb B
Try to quiet the noises in your head
B C#
We can’t compete with all that
[Chorus]
F#
So what if it’s us
D#m B
What if it’s us and only us
B C#
And what came before won’t count anymore or matter
C#
Can we try that?
F# D#m
What if it’s you and what if it’s me
A
And what if that’s all that we need it to be
E C#
And the rest of the world falls away
C#
What do you say?
[Verse 2]
{EVAN}:
F#
I never thought there’d be someone like you who would
C#
Want me
{ZOE}:
Well…
{EVAN}:
F#
So I’d give you ten thousand reasons
C#
To not let me go
Bbm F#
But if you really see me
G#/C C# F F#
If you like me for me and nothing else
F# G#
That’s all that I wanted for longer than you could possibly know
[Chorus]
C#
So it can be us
Bbm
It can be us
F#
And only us
F# G#
And what came before won’t count anymore or matter
G#
We can try that
[Bridge]
{ZOE AND EVAN}:
F# Bbm
It’s not so impossible
{EVAN}:
Bbm G#
Nobody else but the two of us here
{ZOE AND EVAN}:
F# Bbm
‘Cause you’re saying it’s possible
{ZOE}:
Bbm G#
We can just watch the whole world disappear
{ZOE AND EVAN}:
F# Bbm G# F# G#
Til you’re the only one I still know how to see
[Chorus]
{EVAN}:
D#
It’s just you and me
{ZOE}:
D# Cm
It’ll be us, it’ll be us
G#
And only us
G# Bb
And what came before won’t count anymore
{ZOE AND EVAN}:
D#
We can try that
D# Cm
You and me
F#
That’s all that we need it to be
C# B
And the rest of the world falls away
C# D# Bb Cm G#
And the rest of the world falls away
D# Bb
The world falls away
G# Bb
The world falls away
G# Bb
And it’s only us
