(intro)
A5                 D5
Emily Chambers would make it pay
A5                   D5
Everyone knew she'd turn out that way
    B5                        D5
She turned her back and she'll be O.K
        B5            E5
But she's not O.K at all

(verso 2)
A5                 D5
Every night with the radio on (2nd time round 'with the lamp light on')
A5                 D5
Emily fears that the day won't come
    B5                  D5
The moon is there to do her harm
      B5            E5
She's not alright at all

(refr?o)
      D5                    E5
Don't get arrested, don't buy a machine gun,
       A5                     B5
You're not on the run and you're not on the scene.
       D5                   E5
You're not so cool and you're not a jerk,
     A5                      B5
You may be a villain but no Patty Hearst
      D5            E5
You're Emily Chambers and what's worse
     A5                    B5
Is a whipping wind and a box in a hearse.
      D5                           E5
And a trigger in your head and a pen in your hand,
      A5                      B5
And the pain in the verse and the flat drying land,
      D5                   E5
And the thin of the air and a pain that hurts
       A5                 B5               D5         E5
You're Emily Chambers in the universe, oh, oh
