[F#]
[B] [Bm] It seems so long [Bm] ago
[F#m]
Nancy [C#m] was [F#m] alone
[A] Looking at [Bm] the late, late show
Through [A] a semi [E] -precious [A] stone
[C#] Well, in the house of [F#m] honesty
Her [D]
father was [A] on trial
And [E] in the house [F#m] of mystery
There [C#m] was no [D] one at all
[A] There was [E] no one [F#m] at all
[Bm] It seems [F#] so long [Bm]
ago
[F#m]
[C#m] None of us [F#m] were strong
[A]
Nancy wore [Bm] green stockings
She [A] slept with [E]
[A] everyone
She [B]
[C#] never said [F#m] she'd wait for us
[D] Although she was [A] alone
I [E] think she fell in [F#m] love for us
[C#] In [C#m]
[D] 1961
[A] In [E]
[F#] 1961
[F#m] It
[Bm] seems so [F#] long [Bm] ago
[C#m] Nancy was alone
A [A]
45 [Bm] beside her head
[A] [E] An open [A] telephone
We [C#] told her she was [F#m] beautiful
[F#] We [D] told her she [A] was free
But [E] none of us would [F#m] meet her
In [C#m] the house of [D] mystery
The [A] house of [E] [F#m]
mystery
And [Bm]
now you [F#] look around you
Well, [F#m] you see her [C#m] everywhere
[C#]
[A] Many that [Bm] use her body
[A] And many [E] comb [A] her hair
[C#]
And in the hollow [F#m] of the night
[D] When you are [A] cold and down
You [E] hear her talking [F#m] freely then
[C#m] She's happy [D] that you've come
She's [A] happy [E] that [F#m] you've come
It [Bm]
seems [F#] so long [Bm] ago
[B] [F#m]
[C#m] Nancy was [F#m] so alone
[A]
[E] [Bm]
