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

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

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

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

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

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