Standard (EADGBE)

She had hair like Jeannie Shrimpton back in 1965

 She had legs that never ended, I was halfway paralyzed

 She was tall and cool and pretty and she dressed as black as coal

 If she asked me to I'd murder, I would gladly lose my soul

Chorus

Now I lie in bed and think of her

Sometimes I even weep

 Then I dream of her behind a wall of sleep

Well she held a bass guitar and she was playing in a band

 And she stood just like Bill Wyman, now I am her biggest fan

 Now I know I'm one of many who would like to be your friend

 And I've got to find a way to let you know I'm not one of them

Chorus

Got your number from a friend of mine who lives in your home town

 Called you up to have a drink your roomate said you weren't around

 Now I know I'm one of many who would like to be your friend

 And I've got to find a way to let you know I'm not like them

Chorus

Behind a wall of sleep

Behind a wall of sleep

Behind a wall of sleep
