VERSE 1:
[F#] We were together since
[E] we were five, she was so pretty
Emma was a star ^
[F] in
[F#] everyone's eyes
And when she said she'd be a movie queen,
[E] nobody laughed
A face like an angel, she could ^
[F] be
[F#] anything
CHORUS:
Emmaline, Emma,
[E] Emmaline
I'm gonna write your name high
on ^
[F] that
[F#] silver screen
Emmaline, Emma,
[E] Emmaline
I'm gonna make you the biggest star
this world ^
[F] has
[F#] ever seen

VERSE 2:
[F#] At seventeen
[E] we were wed
I'd work day and night, to earn our ^
[F] daily
[F#] bread
And every day Emma would go out
[E] searching for that play
That never, ^
[F] ever
[F#] came her way
VERSE 3:
You know sometimes she'd come home,
[E] so depressed
I'd hear her crying in the back room, ^
[F] feel
[F#] so distressed
And I'd remember back when
[E] she was five
To the words that used to make, Emma-^
[F]-line
[F#] come alive, it was

VERSE 4:
[F#] It was a cold and dark De-
[E]-cember night
When I opened up ^
[F] the
[F#] bedroom door
To find her lying still and cold up-
[E]-on the bed
A love letter lying on ^
[F] the
[F#] bedroom floor
VERSE 5:
It read: Darling I
[E] love you
But I just can't keep on living ^
[F] on
[F#] dreams no more
I tried so very hard not to
[E] leave you alone
I just can't keep ^
[F] on
[F#] trying no more
