VERSE 1:
[A#] We were together since [G#] we were five, she was so pretty
Emma was a star ^[A] 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 ^[A] be [A#] anything

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

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

VERSE 2:
[A#] At seventeen [G#] we were wed
I'd work day and night, to earn our ^[A] daily [A#] bread
And every day Emma would go out [G#] searching for that play
That never, ^[A] 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, ^[A] feel [A#] so distressed
And I'd remember back when [G#] she was five
To the words that used to make, Emma-^[A]-line [A#] come alive, it was

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

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

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

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