[Verse]

She

Was only seventeen

Oh, why are girls in songs always seventeen?

She

Was from a movie scene

And now she plays in my head all day

[Chorus]

G A

She called me up

D Em

And let me in

G A

I couldn't feel my legs

G A

She walked me back

D Bm

Into her room

But just to see

A D

A 1980s horror film

[Verse]

Oh, I was so scared

She had the curtains down

So there was no glare

She pulled up a chair

And gave me the bed

And all these crazy things

Went through my head

[Chorus]

G A

It seems so long

D Em

I need someone

G A

I don't know what to say

G A

She was sitting there

D Bm

I could touch her hair

But still we watched

A 1980s horror film

Jamie

Bm A

I don't know what to say to you

I feel

Bm A Em

You're always on my mind

G D

And now that I know what I need

A Em G

I'm taking the long way round in my mind

It's not right

A Em G

I can't help the way I feel anymore

D A

And I need to ask you, Jamie:

Em G D A

Oh, can it be that you feel this way, too?

G A

The lights were off

The mood was right

G A

She came and laid with me

G A

I looked into her eyes

Tried to make her mine

But then she said

(one strum)

"I'm really not that into guys."
