Chords for Popular (From "Wicked" Original Broadway Cast Recording/2003)

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