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

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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

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

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

OUTRO:

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