Dear Evan Hansen Lyrics [Genderbend]

Anybody Have a Map?

HENRY (spoken)
Have you been writing those letters to yourself?
"Dear Emma Hansen
This is gonna be a good day and here's why"

EMMA (spoken)
I started one

HENRY (spoken)
Those letters are important, honey
They're gonna help you build your confidence!

EMMA (spoken)
I guess

HENRY
Can we try to have an optimistic outlook, huh?
Can we buck up just enough to see the world won't fall apart?
Maybe this year we decide we're not giving up before we've tried
This year we make a new start

HENRY (spoken)
Hey, I know
You can go around and ask the other kids to sign your cast
How 'bout that?

EMMA (spoken)
Perfect

HENRY (spoken)
I'm proud of you already

EMMA (spoken)
Oh...good

HENRY
Another stellar conversation for the scrapbook
Another stumble as I'm reaching for the right thing to say
I'm kinda coming up empty
I can't find my way to you

Does anybody have a map?
Anybody maybe happen to know how the hell to do this?
I don't know if you can tell
But this is me just pretending to know
So where's the map?
I need a clue
'Cause the scary truth is
I'm flyin' blind
I'm making this up as I go

CYNTHUS (spoken)
It's your senior year, Chloe
You are not missing the first day

CHLOE (spoken)
I already said I'd go tomorrow

LAURA (spoken)
She doesn't listen
Look at her
She's probably high

ZAYN (spoken)
She's definitely high

CYNTHUS (spoken)
I don't want you going to school high, Chloe

CHLOE (spoken)
Perfect
So then I won't go
Thanks, dad!

CYNTHUS
Another masterful attempt ends with disaster

LARRY (spoken)
Interstate's already jammed

CYNTHUS
Pour another cup of coffee
And watch it all crash and burn

ZAYN (spoken)
Chloe finished the milk!

CYNTHUS
It's a puzzle
It's a maze
I've tried to steer through it a million ways
But each day is another wrong turn

LAURA (spoken)
I better head out

ZAYN (spoken)
If Chloe's not ready, I'm leaving without her

HENRY AND CYNTHUS
Does anybody have a map? Anybody have a map?
Anybody maybe happen to know how the hell to do this?
I don't know if you can tell
But this is me just pretending to know

HENRY
So where's the map?

CYNTHUS
I need a clue

BOTH
'Cause the scary truth is

CYNTHUS
I'm flyin' blind

HENRY
I'm flyin' blind

CYNTHIA
I'm flyin' blind

HENRY
I'm flyin'

BOTH
I'm flyin' blind
And I'm making this up as I go
As I go
