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

CHORUS:
G (320003@1)                  Em (022000@1)           
Now I lie in bed and think of her 
G (320003@1)              Em (022000@1)Sometimes I even weep
       Am (x02210@1)         G (320003@1)              EmThen (022000@1)I dream of her behind a wall of sleep

        Am (x02210@1)                              EmAnd (022000@1)she stood just like Bill Wyman, now I am her biggest fan
                                     G (320003@1)
