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
