GAm I tried to call you but the line was busy DG Were you talking to a friend EmAm And when I tried again much later DG I didn't want to let it ring again
GAm So you can see I've got a problem DG Back by popular demand EmAm Sometimes I want to keep it from you DGG - Bm - Em Sometimes I think you'll understand
(CHORUS) EmAm Could you be my little movie star DGG - Bm - Em Could you be my long lost girl EmAm It's true that I don't really know you DG But I'm alone in the world
(Use chord progression from second verse) When I think maybe I need you I don't care if it's not true 'Cause it isn't so much what I need now As what I want from you
(CHORUS) (CHORUS)
EmAmDG I feel alone... EmAmDG I feel alone...

When doing the G - Bm - Em part it works best (for me anyway) to do the G like a regular E but bar the third fret (I don't know if thats the right way to describe it but the fingers are like so...)
