I Wish That I Was Beautiful For You

  G  Cadd9 D/F# Am Em D Cm

E|-3--3-----0----0--0--2--3-| 
B|-3--3-----3----1--0--3--4-| 
G|-0--0-----2----2--0--2--5-| 
D|-0--2-----0----2--2--0--5-| 
A|-2--3-----0----0--2--x--3-| 
E|-3--0-----2----x--0--x--3-| 

Cm is a barre chord.

I know the intro and verses up to the Em. it goes something like this:
   G     Cadd9 G     D/F# ((the Em after:              ))
E|-----------------------------------------------------| 
B|-----------------------------------------5---------5-| 
G|-----5-----5-------------7-------------5---5---------| 
D|---------7-------5-----5-------------6-------6---6---| 
A|-7-7---8-----7-7---5-5-------------6-----------6-----| 
E|-8-----------8-----7---------------------------------| 

and then it does something i can't quite put my finger on. look for updates.

  G               C             G     D/F#
I wish that I was beautiful for you
  G           C             G         D/F#               Em
I wish that I inspired tiny fireworks inside the way you do
              G
So delicately made
              C
A prayer left un-prayed
C      G   Am G    D   C           Am
Before the morning sky fades up to blue
      Cm
And I wish that I was beautiful for you

  G                   C            G    D/F#
I wish that somehow I could find a pill
      G                C                G
For a quick fix modern tonic that would change me with one
D/F#            Em
swallow I would kill
                       G
Watch folks line up to pay
                C
Stare at me all day
    C   G    Am   G   D C                 Am
But I'd turn them all away if that be thy will
    Cm
One tiny little innocuous pill

      D/F#           Am       D                Am
But a wish is just a pin in a swimming pool of needles
   Em  A   G                  C      D/F#            G
If for one night you need the room I wish to be your tomb
        D/F#
You can lie in me

      G               C                G      D/F#
Is it possible I have other things you need
          G           C               G               D/F#
But to be worthy of a single page out of one of those magazines you
Em
Read
               G
As glossy as a mirror
                  C
But mirrors never lie
        C G  Am   G  D   C        Am
They're difficult on the eye it's true
      Cm
And I wish that I was beautiful for you

  G                    C              G    D/F#
I dreamed that we were traveling on a bus
G                 C                                    D/F#
Speeding along an un-named plain towards somewhere and nowhere there
    Em
was us
                             G
Our hands lay useless in our laps
                      C
Like beetles on their backs
        G               C            G    D/F#
We came to a stretch of road where a fire
    G                C            G                    D/F#
Had burned the edges all along it looked as though the highway wore
Em
Eyeliner
                 G
You kissed me by surprise
                 C
When I opened my eyes
      C      G  Am  G  D   C
You'd turned into some old guy
  Am
I screamed
          Cm                                   G
But don't forget of all these things I've only dreamed

           G                  C
If for one night you need the room
D/F#          G
I can be your tomb
        D/F#
You can lie in me
