Ver 1 is popular, but the timing of chords is wrong in many places, and some chords are off, and some lyrics are missing. ( you can try playing it or just read the comments.) I've corrected these.

[Intro]
 
 Am F Dm G                        Am          F   G              G
                  Sha la la la la la la la              uh huh...
 
[Verse 1]
 
 Am                      F         Dm                 G
   I was down at the New Amsterdam    staring at this yellow-haired girl
     Am                     F                  G
 Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with this black-haired flamenco dancer (you know)
 Am                   F            Dm                       G
 She dances while his father plays guitar.  She's suddenly beautiful
    Am                 F           G
 We all want something beautiful,   man I wish I was beautiful
 
[Verse 2]
 
         Am                 F
 So come dance this silence down through the morning
 Dm                  G        Am        F  G
        Sha la la la la la la la  yeah          uh huh.. .
 Am          F    Dm                  G
 Cut up, Maria!  Show me some of them Spanish dances
 Am        F             G
 Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
 Am               F    Dm              G
    Believe in me.  Help me believe in anything
         Am               F                 G
 'Cause I want to be someone who believes
 
[Chorus]
 
 C   F             G
  Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
         C                       F
 And we stare at the beautiful women
        G
 "She's looking at you.  Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
 C              F             G
 Smiling in the bright lights, come in through in stereo
      C                F   G
 When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely
 
[Verse 3]
 
 Am                 F         Dm              G
    I will paint my picture.  Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
 Am                   F                G
 All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
            Am                  F      Dm          G            Am
 (you know) Gray is my favorite color I felt so symbolic yesterday
 Am             F          G                            C
 If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
 
[Chorus]
 
 C   F         G
 Mr. Jones and me look into the future
          C                      F
 Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
        G                                                        C
 "She's looking at you.  Uh, I don't think so.  She's looking at me."
 C               F          G
 Standing in the spotlight I bought myself a gray guitar
      C               F     G                       Am
 When everybody loves me,     I will never be lone--ly
 
[Bridge]
 
                  Fmaj7
 I will never be lonely
                Am           G
 Said I'm never gonna be lone---ly
 
Am                    Fmaj7
  I wanna be a lion.  E - everybody wanna pass as cats
Am                                        G
  We all wanna be big, big stars, yeah but we got different reasons for that
Am                        Fmaj7
   Believe in me 'cause I don't believe in anything
      Am                              G
 And I, I wanna be someone to believe, to believe, to believe
 
[Chorus]
 
 C   F            G
 Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
      C                         F
 Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
        G
 "She's perfect for you, man, there's got to be somebody for me."
 C                Fmaj7
 I want to be Bob Dylan
     G
 Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
 
      C            Fmaj7      G
 When everybody loves you, ah son, that's just about as funky as you can be
 
[Ending]
 
 C    Fmaj7       G
 Mr. Jones and me staring at the video
         C              Fmaj7              G
 When I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me
 C                 Fmaj7             G
 We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why, and we don't know how
          C               Fmaj7            G
 But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just about as happy as I can be
 C   Fmaj7          G
 Mr. Jones and me,     we're gonna be big stars.....

Outstanding. The chords are perfectly placed. By far the best version. Thanks for the tab.

Excellent contribution. Chords are lined up perfectly. Which is difficult to do in a song with an off-beat singing cadence.
