Then one day a movie scout

                    F      C
Swimming pool and a fence around
                   G7       C
But she missed her old home town
F                 C
All the world was at her door

All except the boy next door

Sold her house and all her cars
                F          C
Gave up all her wealth and fame
                G7       C
Left it all and caught a train
F            C
Do I have to tell you more
                    G7        C
