PM  ..............   ..............   ..............   ..........

It wasn't supposed to be like this
Another dose of unhappiness
I gave it all and managed to get
Shot down yet again
[PART 2:]
A5
So I got drunk
C#5
Had sex with all your friends
F#5                       D5
You told me that I should never
                [pick slide]
Call your house again

[CHORUS 1:]
A5   E5  B5    D5   
  Emily, ah ah ah
A5    E5        B5   D5
  You saved the day
A5   E5  B5    D5   
  Emily, ah ah ah
[F#5       A5       B5] <<[palm muted]
  How you threw me away

[CHORUS 2:]
        A5            E5
She was always such a pretty girl
  B5            D5
Nobody like her in the world
  A5              E5
A little peice of heaven
     B5                D5
That no-one else could stand
  A5            E5
I see you in my dreams at night
  B5             D5
I see you when I close my eyes
  A5         E5   B5         D5
I just can't stay awake - Emily...

[PLAY VERSE PART 1 then VERSE PART 2]
You got your money and I got cash
Outside, thrown out on my ass
In  the city with no-one else
And nowhere else to go
So then I hooked up
With a model from Singapore
Emily I so am glad
That you didn't want me anymore

[PLAY CHORUS 1 & 2]
then....
