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

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

BREAK: (with *F2)
[D#] [C#] [C#] ^[D] [D#]

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: (over *F1)
[D#] [C#] [C#] ^[D]
[D#] [C#] [C#] ^[D]

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

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

OUTRO:

Aahhh, Emmaline [C#] [C#] ^[D] [D#]
[D#] Emmaline [C#] [C#] ^[D] [D#]
Aahhh, Emmaline [C#] [C#] ^[D] [D#]
