Am B7 Em G+5 Em G I've never known anybody like her, she's actual size Em B+ Em Nationwide, believe (turnaround = Edim(E) G(D) C-5(C) G+(B) ) (Last two verses & choruses shown below are the same, chord-wise; prior to the last half, ever-changing drum solos are done at this point) She's got All the money Money couldn't buy She's got something special That someone left behind She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me Squares may look distant in her rear view mirror but they're actual size Actual size to her (Repeat turnaround) Her face Hangs in portrait On the post office wall She's stuck in my heart now Where my blood belongs She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me I've never known anybody like her, she's actual size Actual size, believe (Repeat turnaround) (Last chord): EmMaj7
