[A] [G] [G] ^[G#] [A]

VERSE 1:
[A] We were together since [G] we were five, she was so pretty
Emma was a star ^[G#] in [A] everyone's eyes
And when she said she'd be a movie queen, [G] nobody laughed
A face like an angel, she could ^[G#] be [A] anything

CHORUS:
Emmaline, Emma, [G] Emmaline
I'm gonna write your name high
on ^[G#] that [A] silver screen
Emmaline, Emma, [G] Emmaline
I'm gonna make you the biggest star
this world ^[G#] has [A] ever seen

BREAK: (with *F2)
[A] [G] [G] ^[G#] [A]

VERSE 2:
[A] At seventeen [G] we were wed
I'd work day and night, to earn our ^[G#] daily [A] bread
And every day Emma would go out [G] searching for that play
That never, ^[G#] ever [A] came her way

VERSE 3:
You know sometimes she'd come home, [G] so depressed
I'd hear her crying in the back room, ^[G#] feel [A] so distressed
And I'd remember back when [G] she was five
To the words that used to make, Emma-^[G#]-line [A] come alive, it was

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: (over *F1)
[A] [G] [G] ^[G#]
[A] [G] [G] ^[G#]

VERSE 4:
[A] It was a cold and dark De-[G]-cember night
When I opened up ^[G#] the [A] bedroom door
To find her lying still and cold up-[G]-on the bed
A love letter lying on ^[G#] the [A] bedroom floor

VERSE 5:
It read: Darling I [G] love you
But I just can't keep on living ^[G#] on [A] dreams no more
I tried so very hard not to [G] leave you alone
I just can't keep ^[G#] on [A] trying no more

Aahhh, Emmaline [G] [G] ^[G#] [A]
