Notes:
Lianne picks the open Em9/Em7 chords more or less as in the guitar figure.
An alternative is to find a strumming pattern for the open Em9 - Em7.
Play around with these chords and try to find a pattern that works for you.

On the Gm7 chord she frets on and off the 2nd string at the 5th fret.
Chords:
Sometimes when you talk, mm-hmm,
And I'm your Betty Boo, and we're singing it close
Like the girls in Belleville rendez-vous
I wish that we could somehow freeze the frame
But this isn't the silver-screen, oh no,
There's no pause, no re-wind
Notes:
The chords follow the same picking pattern as for the the VERSEs.
Chords:
Time to find out where the story goes,
Sadly too hip with the curtains closed,
Watching ourselves au cinéma
Taking our positions as the cameras roll,
You'll be the guy, I'll be the girl,
Watching ourselves au cinéma, cinéma-ah
Chords:
Now we cut to the girl, alone
She's found on the Brooklyn Bridge
And she's truly at home,
Oh, her step has a whole new spring
Big bright lights of the city are shining for her
There's a thirst in her eyes, and her heart,
'Though she thinks to look back, back, she won't...
There's no pause, no re-wind; no pause, no re-wind
Chords:
Time to find out where the story goes,
Sadly too hip with the curtains closed,
Watching ourselves au cinéma
Taking our positions as the cameras roll,
You'll be the guy, I'll be the girl,
Watching ourselves au cinéma, cinéma-ah
Notes:
Finger-pick as for VERSE/CHORUS.
...Where the story goes...
...With the curtains closed...
Watching ourselves au cinéma...
Taking our positions as the cameras roll,
You'll be the guy, I'll be the girl,
Watching ourselves au cinéma, cinéma-ah
