Elphie, now that we're friends, I've decided to make you my new project.
You really don't have to do that.
I know.
[N] That's what makes me so [Fm] nice.
[C] Whenever I [D] see someone [G] less fortunate than [C] I
And let's face it, [D] who isn't?
Less [F] fortunate than I
My [Eb] tender heart tends to start [C] to bleed
And when someone [D] needs a makeover
I simply [C] have to take over
I know, [Ab] I know
Exactly what [G] they need
[Gm] And even in [C] your case
Though it's [Am] the toughest [A] case I've [D] yet to face
[Gm] Don't worry, I'm [Eb] determined to [G] succeed
[C] Follow my [G] lead
And yes, [C] indeed
[Bb] You [A] will [G] be [C] popular
You're gonna be [F] popular
[C] I'll [Dm] teach you the proper poise
When you [Am] talk to boys
[Bb] Little ways to flirt and flounce
I'll show [Dm] you what shoes to wear
How to fix your [Bb] hair
Everything that [C] really counts
To be popular
I'll help you be popular
[F] You'll hang with the right cohorts
You'll be good at sports
Know the slang you've got to [D] know
So let's [Gm] start
Cause you've got an awfully long [F] way to go
[Ab] [Db] Don't be offended by my prank analysis
[Ab] Think of it as [Ab] personality [Dbm] dialysis
Now that I've chosen to become a [Eb] policyster and [Eb] advisor
There's nobody wiser
Not when [F] it comes to [C] popular
I know about [F] popular
And with an assist from me
To be [Am] who you'll be
[D] Instead of dreary who you were Well, are
[Bb] There's nothing that can stop you from Becoming [F] popular
Laaar
[C] Laaar
[Bb] [F] [Gm]
We're gonna make you [C] popular
[Gm] [F]
[Bm] When I see depressing creatures
[A] With [Dm] unprepossessing [G] features
I'm on [C] behalf
To think [A] of
Celebrated heads of [Dm] state
Or especially great communicators
Did [Gm] they have [G] brains or knowledge
[C] Don't make me laugh
Hey, we're [C] popular Please
It's all about [F] popular
It's not about [Am] aptitude
It's the way you're viewed
So [Dm] it's very shrewd to me
[Bb] Very, very [C] popular
Like [F] [Gm] me
[A] Why, Miss Elphaba
[Dm]
Look at you
[G] [G] You're beautiful
[C] I have to go
You're welcome
And though [F] you protest [Dm] Your disinterest
[Bb] I know [B]
clandestinely
[Am] [G] [Gm] You're gonna grin and bear it
You found [F] popularity
Just [C] [Bb] [F] [Bb]
not quite as [C] popular As [F] me
[F]
