Too Pretty For The Nerds Acústico Cifras

Hello, this is my first attempt at uploading anything to here.  However, I felt that
TJW's song was
an absolute must. It's an oldie from his
album Proverbial Elephant.  This is tuned a half-step down.  For the acoustic, capo on
6th fret.
The strum pattern is simple: bass note then
the three strings above it (just listen to the song).
Side note: he does not play the top E string typically
* means picking
 
Intro: Am    G     F      C  G     Am     G     F  Em     C
 
C
Lovely thing, she's a city girl so
Am                                                    F
Brought up in a town where there's nowhere to go but down
        C  G
But the song
C
That came from a voice made a yellow paint picture
Am                                        F
Beautiful sound making everyone miss her now
      C  G
I'm waiting
Am      Em
Though she is
 
C                    G
Too pretty for the nerds, but
Am                     F                     C
Far too nerdy for the fine fake flirty male type,
C                             Am     Em
Using transcendental words to swoon her.
C                     G
So she's frozen in between those
Am                        F                    C
Old love saying she's a young heartbreaking machine.
C                G7             Am             Em
It's simple, I suppose, she'll make you wanna say
                  C    G    Am    F
She's perfect for me
                  C    G    Am    F
She's perfect for me
 
- C    G    Am   F -
C
How can she find all this love when she's so stuck
Am                                          F
Can't she rely on something like dumb luck now
   C G
Oh how
C
The problem is this,
C                              Am
Hard-headed stuck as (I) reach at her with gifts
Am                             F
While the nerds are too shy, oh my
        C  G
It's a lose
Am                Em
At least for the girl who's
 
C                    G
Too pretty for the nerds, but
Am                     F                      C
Far too nerdy for the fine fake flirty male type,
C                             Am     Em
Using transcendental words to swoon her.
C                     G
So she's frozen in between those
Am                        F                    C
Old love saying she's a young heartbreaking machine.
C                    G7             Am            Em
And it's simple, I suppose, she'll make you wanna say
                  F*   C*   G*  Am*   F*   G*
She's perfect for me
 
                      Am*       F*        G*
It's what you want to say when she comes around
                       Am*      F*          G*
You won't know what to say when she comes around
                 Am*        F*           G*             Am*                 F*            G*
What is there to say when you're only bound to wind up falling short and wishing you had been
 
C                     G
Just perfect for the girl who
Am                        F
Makes you smile and it's so worthwhile, and
C                       G
Every moment's like a clue that
Am   (stop strumming)    C
Something's happening to you.
C                        G
When she's looking your way, and
       Am             F
You suddenly find a reason to stay,
C                          G
Just pray or whatever you do to
Am                         Em
Make sure you don't lose the girl who's
 
C                    G
Too pretty for the nerds, but
Am                     F                      C
Far too nerdy for the fine fake flirty male type,
C                             Am     Em
Using transcendental words to swoon her.
C                     G
So she's frozen in between those
Am                        F                     C
Old love saying she's a young heartbreaking machine.
C                    G7             Am             Em*
And it's simple, I suppose, she'll make you wanna say
                   C
She's perfect for me
