Popular (wicked) Tab uke di Kristin Chenoweth

Glinda (Spoken): Elphie, now that we're friends, I've decided to make you my new project!
Elphaba (Spoken): You really don't have to do that
Glinda (Spoken): I know, that's what makes me so nice!

VERSE:
Am              D                G              C
whenever I see someone less fortunate than I
Am              D                G              F
and let's face it, who isn't less fortunate than I?
F               Eb               C
my tender heart tends to start to bleed.
Am              D                G              C
and when someone needs a makeover, I simply have to take over!
Ab              Bb               G
I know I know exactly what they need!

PRE-CHORUS:
Gm                    C
and even in your case,
A7                              D
though it's the toughest case i've yet to face,
Gm                    Bb         C
don't worry, i'm determined to succeed!
F                     Gm
follow my lead,
F                     C
and yes indeed, you will be...

CHORUS 1:
F              C                 Bb             F
POPULAR! you're gonna be pop-u-u-lar!
C              Dm                Am    Dm    Am
I'll teach you the proper ploys, when you talk to boys,
Bb             C                 F
little ways to flirt and flounce, ooh!
A7             Dm
I'll show you what shoes to wear!
F              Bb
how to fix your hair!
Bb             Gm                C
everything that really counts to be...

CHORUS 2:
F              C                 Bb             F
POPULAR! you're gonna be pop-u-u-lar!
C              Dm                Am    Dm    Am
you'll hang with the right cohorts, you'll be good at sports,
Bb             C                 A7
Know the slang you've got to know
D              Gm                C              F
So let's start, cause you've got an awfully long way to go

BRIDGE 1:
G              C                 A7
Don't be offended by my frank analysis
A7             E
Think of it as personality dialysis

BRIDGE 2:
F              Bb                C
Now that I've chosen to become a
F              Bb
Pal, a sister and advisor
Gm             C
There's nobody wiser!
F              Bb                C
Not when it comes to
F
Popular!

VERSE 2:
F              Bb                C
I know about popular
F              Bb
And with an assist from me
Gm             C
To be who you'll be
F              Bb                C
Instead of dreary who you were
F
Well, are
Bb             C
There's nothing that can stop you
F              C
From becoming popu-lar... lar

BRIDGE 3:
F              C                 Bb             F
La la, la la!
F              C                 Bb             F
We're gonna make you pop-you-lar!

VERSE 3:
F              Bb                C
When I see depressing creatures
F              Bb
With unprepossessing features
Gm             C
I remind them on their own behalf
F              Bb                C
To think of
F              Bb
Celebrated heads of state
Gm             C
Or specially great communicators!
F              Bb                C
Did they have brains or knowledge?
F
Don't make me laugh!

CHORUS 3:
F              Bb                C
They were popular!
F              C
Please!

VERSE 4:
F              Bb                C
It's all about popular
F              Bb
It's not about aptitude
Gm             C
It's the way you're viewed
F              Bb                C
So it's very shrewd to be
F              C
Very very popular
F
Like me!

(Spoken): Why, Miss Elphaba, look at you. You're beautiful!
(Elphaba speaks): I, I have to go
(Spoken): You're welcome

FINAL VERSE:
F              Bb                C
And though you protest
F              Bb
Your disinterest
Gm             C
I know clandestinely
F              Bb                C
You're gonna grin and bear it!
F              C
Your new found popularity!

OUTRO:
F              C                 Bb             F
Aah!
F              C                 Bb             F
La la, la la!
F              Bb                C              F
You'll be popular!
Bb             C                 F
Just not quite as popular as me!
