Capo 3
(transpose up 3 to play with no capo)
[Intro]
AmF G E
, , , 
[Verse]
Am                          F
It started on a weekend in May
      G
I was looking for attention
E
needed intervention
Am                       F
Felt somebody looking at me
       G
With a powder white complexion
E
 (stop)
feeling the connection
    F                    G
The way she looked was so ridiculous
      E
Every single step
       Am
Had me waiting for the next
F                       G
Before I knew it, it was serious
E
Dragged me out the bar
E
To the backseat of a car
[Chorus]
         Am
When the lights go out,
                 F
she's all I ever think about
                    G
The picture burning in my brain
       G
kissing in the rain
  E                             Am
I can't forget my English love affair
                        F
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
                 G
The movie playing in my head
       G
Of her king size bed
        E
Means I can't forget my
               AmF G
               , , 
English love affair
E
My English love affair
[Verse]
Am                             F
Next thing we were back at her place
  G
A hideaway in Mayfair 
E
all the great and good there
Am                            F
Drinking all the way to third base
G
Princes getting naked
E
 (stop)
Falling on their faces
F                    G
The story line was so ridiculous
E
Every single step had me 
Am
begging for the next
F                       G
Before I knew it, it was serious
E
Dragged me up the stairs and it
E
wasn't ending there
[Chorus]
         Am
When the lights go out,
                 F
she's all I ever think about
                    G
The picture burning in my brain
       G
kissing in the rain
   E                              Am
I can't forget my English love affair
                          F
Today, I'm seven thousand miles away
                 G
The movie playing in my head
       G
Of her king size bed

Means I can't forget my

English love affair
[Bridge]
           F
When I got out I knew that
nobody I knew would be
G
believing me
            F
I look back now and know that
nobody could ever take the
G
memory
[Chorus]
         Am
When the lights go out,
                 F
she's all I ever think about

The picture burning in my brain
