[HAMILTON]

Mr. President, you asked to see me?

[WASHINGTON]

I know you’re busy

[HAMILTON]

What do you need, sir? Sir?

[WASHINGTON]

I wanna give you a word of warning

[HAMILTON]

Sir, I don’t know what you heard

But whatever it is, Jefferson started it

[WASHINGTON]

Thomas Jefferson resigned this morning

[HAMILTON]

You’re kidding

[WASHINGTON]

I need a favor

[HAMILTON]

Whatever you say, sir, Jefferson will pay for this behavior

[WASHINGTON]

Shh. Talk less

[HAMILTON]

I’ll use the press

I’ll write under a pseudonym, you’ll see what I can do to him—

[WASHINGTON]

I need you to draft an address

[HAMILTON]

Yes! He resigned. You can finally speak your mind—

[WASHINGTON]

No, he’s stepping down so he can run for President

[HAMILTON]

Ha. Good luck defeating you, sir

[WASHINGTON]

I’m stepping down. I’m not running for President

[HAMILTON]

I’m sorry, what?

[WASHINGTON]

One last time

Relax, have a drink with me

One last time

Let’s take a break tonight

And then we’ll teach them how to say goodbye

To say goodbye

You and I

[HAMILTON]

No, sir, why?

[WASHINGTON]

I wanna talk about neutrality

[HAMILTON]

Sir, with Britain and France on the verge of war, is this the best time—

[WASHINGTON]

I want to warn against partisan fighting

[HAMILTON]

But—

[WASHINGTON]

Pick up a pen, start writing

I wanna talk about what I have learned

The hard-won wisdom I have earned

[HAMILTON]

As far as the people are concerned

You have to serve, you could continue to serve—

[WASHINGTON]

No! One last time

The people will hear from me

One last time

And if we get this right

We’re gonna teach ‘em how to say

Goodbye

You and I—

[HAMILTON]

Mr. President, they will say you’re weak

[WASHINGTON]

No, they will see we’re strong

[HAMILTON]

Your position is so unique

[WASHINGTON]

So I’ll use it to move them along

[HAMILTON]

Why do you have to say goodbye?

[WASHINGTON]

If I say goodbye, the nation learns to move on

It outlives me when I’m gone

Like the scripture says:

“Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree

And no one shall make them afraid.”

They’ll be safe in the nation we’ve made

I wanna sit under my own vine and fig tree

A moment alone in the shade

At home in this nation we’ve made

One last time

[HAMILTON]

One last time

Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors. I shall also carry with me

[HAMILTON AND WASHINGTON]

The hope

That my country will

View them with indulgence;

And that

After forty-five years of my life dedicated to its service with an upright zeal

The faults of incompetent abilities will be

Consigned to oblivion, as I myself must soon be to the mansions of rest

I anticipate with pleasing expectation that retreat in which I promise myself to realize the sweet enjoyment of partaking, in the midst of my fellow-citizens, the benign influence of good laws

Under a free government, the ever-favorite object of my heart, and the happy reward, as I trust

Of our mutual cares, labors, and dangers.

[WASHINGTON]

One last time

[ALL WOMEN]

George Washington’s going home!

[HAMILTON]

Teach ‘em how to say goodbye

[COMPANY]

George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]

You and I

[COMPANY]

George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]

Going home

[COMPANY]

George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]

History has its eyes on you

[COMPANY]

George Washington’s going home!

[WASHINGTON]

We’re gonna teach ‘em how to

Say goodbye!

Teach them how to

Say goodbye!

To say goodbye!

[COMPANY]

Say goodbye!

[WASHINGTON]

Say goodbye!

[COMPANY]

Say goodbye!

[WASHINGTON]

One last time!

[COMPANY]

One last time!
