What is that note?

What note is the syllable "BE" sung on the last time Bobby sings Being Alive! in the eponymous song?

In the Big Book of Broadway (2nd edition) it's a G sharp.

In All Sondheim Volume 1, it's an A.

They're in different keys, obviously. I don't know which one is the original.

The original score has it at a G#

Aww, crap... I was hoping it was an E... at least it was in the "Definitive Broadway Collection..."

I hate the deceptive transposition...

That's the version I have... I think (lemme go check). I got it from the Sondheim at Carnegie Hall book.

EDIT: Yes, in the key of C major, it's an E. I believe this is also the version used in the 95 revival.
