We _ [F#] _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _
were together _ [G] since we were five. _
She was so pretty.
Emma was a [A] star in everyone's eyes. _
But when she said she'd be a movie [G] queen, nobody laughed.
Her face like an angel, she [A] could be anything. _ _
Emmeline.
_ [G] Emma, Emmeline.
I'm gonna write your name high on [A] that silver screen. _ _
Emmeline.
_ [G] Emma, Emmeline.
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this [A] world has ever seen.
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
At seventeen, _ [G] we were wed.
At work day and night, to [A] earn our daily bread.
And every day, Emma would go [G] out searching for that play
that never, ever [A] came her way.
You know, sometimes she'd come home [G] so depressed.
I'd hear her crying in the back room, [A] feel so distressed. _
And I'd remember back [G] when she was five,
to the words that used to make [A] Emmeline come alive.
It was Emmeline.
_ _ [G] Emma, Emmeline.
I'm gonna write your name high on [A] that silver screen. _
Emmeline.
_ _ [G] Emma, Emmeline.
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this [A] world has ever seen. _

It _ [F#] _ [A] _ _ _
was a cold and dark [G] December night
when I opened up [A] the bedroom door
to find her lying still and [G] cold upon the bed.
A love letter lying on [A] the bed you float.
It read,
_ Darling, [G] I love you. _
But I just can't keep on living [A] on dreams no more.
_ I tried so very [G] hard to leave you alone.
_ I just can't keep [A] on trying no more. _
_ _ _ [G] Emmeline. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] Emmeline. _
Emmeline.
