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.


C                        F#
Vigor, vim, vitality and punch
C                              F#
The ability to act on a sudden hunch
F                   G
Nerve to tackle the hardest thing
     F                   G
With feet that climb and hands that cling
  F                   G
A heart that never forgets to sing

Sand and grit in a concrete base
C                             F#
A friendly smile on an honest face
F                        G
Spirit that helps when another's down
F                      G
Know how to tackle the blackest frown
F                    G
Loves it's neighbor, loves it's town
