Biografía:
Dressed in leather, brandishing heavy guitars, and exhibiting an unabashed fetish for British Invasion pop, the Smithereens were an anomaly in the American college rock scene of the late '80s. Lead singer/songwriter/guitarist Pat DiNizio stood out not only with his strange beatnik goatee, but also because his catchy hooks were haunting, not punchy, and because his lyrics were morose. As time wore on, the group became more straightforward, turning into an excellent bar band, one that attacked pop songs with the weight of AC/DC.

Absolutely great song by the Smithereens, and easy to play and sing. The chorus
could be subdivided more but this charts a solid course. There is some controvery
about the girl named. The right name is Jeannie Shrimpton, an "it girl" from the
1960s, check her out on Google Images. Good Luck, John Pineau
[Verse 1]
Em G
She had hair like Jeannie Shrimpton back in 1965
Am Em
She had legs that never ended, I was halfway paralyzed
Em G
She was tall and cool and pretty and she dressed as black as coal
Am G Em
If she asked me to I'd murder, I would gladly lose my soul
[Chorus]
G Em
Now I lie in bed and think of her
G Em
Some-times I even weep
Am D Em
Then I dream of her be-hind a wall of sleep
[Verse 2]
Em G
Well she held a bass guitar and she was playing in a band
Am G Em
And she stood just like Bill Wyman, now I am her biggest fan
Em G
Now I know I'm one of many who would like to be your friend
Am G Em
And I've got to find a way to let you know I'm not like them
[Chorus]
G Em
Now I lie in bed and think of her
G Em
Some-times I even weep
Am D Em
Then I dream of her be-hind a wall of sleep
[Verse 3]
Em G
Got your number from a friend of mine who lives in your home town
Am G Em
Called you up to have a drink your roomate said you weren't around
Em G
Now I know I'm one of many who would like to be your friend
Am G Em
And I've got to find a way to let you know I'm not like them
[Chorus]
G Em
Now I lie in bed and think of her
G Em
Some-times I even weep
Am D Em
Then I dream of her be-hind a wall of sleep
[Outro]
Am G Em
Behind a wall of sleep
Am G Em
Behind a wall of sleep
Am G Em
