([GM7] should only be played by the piano, guitar
plays a G barre chord: 355433. Also, when an [F#m7]
appears in the verse, the piano should play it, but
guitar should play a [Dadd9/F#]: 2x0230)
VERSE 1
[G] [D] [A]
I wish it was last September.
[G]
We could lose ourselves in crowds everyday.
[G] [D] [A]
'Cause Emaline don't walk in time,
[G] [D]
She's not the same, that's all you can say
CHORUS
[E]
When I've heard enough I tell myself
[C]
That we've learnt our lesson but I
[G/A] [GM7]
Don't wanna walk away from Emaline
VERSE 2
[F#m7] [A]
They're talkin now.
[Em]
Does she know what they're saying?
She's got the air to float above it.
I'm sinking in and someone should pay.
VERSE 3
[GM7] [F#m7] [A]
She's dear to me, and so expensive
[Em]
I'm not talking 'bout money
When money talks I hate to listen
[G] [D]
But lately it's been screaming in my ear
CHORUS
And, when I've heard enough I tell myself
That we've learnt our lesson but I
[G/A] [GM7]
Don't wanna walk away from Emaline
[A][D] [Dsus4] [Dsus2] [D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
BRIDGE
[F#m] [G] [Dmajsus2] [D]
It only took me one look to understand Emaline
[E]
Sometimes I don't know what she's saying
[Gmaj7]
Sometimes I do,
[Eadd9]
Sometimes I don't know what she's saying.
[CM7] [G/A]
But I know I know, I know what she wants to believe
[G] [Dadd9] [A]
Now wish it was last September
[G] [Dadd9] [A][G][G] [Dadd9] [A][G]
[E] [CM7] [G/A]
VERSE 4
[GM7]
Don't let me walk away from Emaline
For stupid reasons
Now I'm talking 'bout money
when money talks
I hate to listen
[G] [D/F#] [Em7][D][Em7] [D/F#]
But lately it's been screaming in my ear.
VERSE 5
What advice: "Girls need attention."
Well are you deaf from that all night?
For all it's worth, she's got attention
From people like you who see black and white
CHORUS
Now I've heard enough I'll tell you what,
I really shouldn't sit here and whine
I'll take you down to see my Emaline
I wish it was.
[G] [Dadd9] [A][G][G] [Dadd9] [A] [GM7]
[G] [D/F#] [A][Em]
[G] [Dadd9] [A]
