This is repeated throughout the song over the C F# progression.
I just indicated an open C chord to illustrate the rythym of the
C portion of the progression. You can play any form of the C chord
you want.
Vigor, vim, vitality and punch
The ability to act on a sudden hunch
Nerve to tackle the hardest thing
With feet that climb and hands that cling
A heart that never forgets to sing
That's pep
That's pep
A D/A B E D (Then back to tab note 1) for 4 bars
That's pep
Sand and grit in a concrete base
A friendly smile on an honest face
Spirit that helps when another's down
Know how to tackle the blackest frown
Loves it's neighbor, loves it's town
That's pep
That's pep
That's pep
B E (then to tab note 2 below)
That's pep

Then back to the tab note 1.
Say "I will" for you know I can
Look for the best in every man
Meet each thundering knockout blow
Come back with a smile 'cause you know
You'll get the best of the whole damn show
That's pep
That's pep
That's pep
OUTRO (repeat first measure of tab note 2 to end)
That's pep
That's pep
That's pep
You know that's pep
Hope this is helpful and clear!! Comments?
