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.
Whenever [D] I see someone [G] less fortunate than I
[Am] And let's face it, [D] who isn't?
[G] Less fortunate [F] than I
[Eb] My tender heart tends to [C] start to bleed
[Am]
And when someone needs a makeover, I [C] simply have to take over
[Bb] I know, I know
[Ab]
Exactly [G] what they need
[Gm] And even in your [C] case
Though it's [Am] the toughest case [D] I've yet to face
[Gm] Don't worry, [Eb] I'm determined [G] to succeed
[C] Follow my [G] lead
And yes, [C] indeed
[Bb] You [A] will [G] be [F] popular
[C] You're [Bb] gonna be [F] popular
[C] I'll teach you the proper poise when you talk to [Bb] boys
Little ways to [F] flirt and flounce
[Dm] I'll show you what shoes to [F] wear
How to fix your [G] hair
[Bb] Everything [C] that really counts to be popular
[Bb] I'll help you be popular
You'll [Dm] hang with the right cohorts
You'll be good at [Bb] sports
Know the slang you've got [D] to know
So [Gm] let's start
Cause you've got an awfully [F] long way to go
[Db] Don't be offended by my prank [Ab] analysis
Think of it as personality [Dbm] dialysis
Now that I've chosen to become a [Eb]
policyster and advisor
There's nobody wiser
Not when [F] it comes to [C] popular
I know about [F] popular
And with the necessity for [Dm] me to be who you'll be
Instead of [A] dreary who you were Well, are
There's nothing [Dm] that can stop you from becoming [F] popular

[C]
We're [F] [Gm] gonna make you popular
[F] When [Bm] I see depressing creatures
With [A] [Dm] unprepossessing features
I [Am]
[C] remotely have to think of
[Bm]
Celebrates of state or [Em] especially great [Dm] communicators
[Am] Did they have brains or [C] knowledge?
Don't make me laugh
They were popular Please
It's all about [F] popular
It's not about [Am] aptitude
It's the way you're viewed
[Dm] So it's very shrewd to [G] be
Very, [Bb] very [C] popular
Like [Bb] me
[D]
Why, Miss Elphaba
[Dm] Look at you
[G]
You're beautiful
[C] I have to go
You're welcome
[D] And though you [Am]
protest [D] Your [F] disinterest
[Bb] I know [E]
clandestine [D] me
[G] [Gm]
You're John O'Grinnon-Baron
You found [F] popularity
Just [C] [F] [Bb]
not quite as [C] popular
As [F]
[C] me
[F]
You really don't have to do that.
I know.
That's what makes me so nice.
