Cos Emaline, don't walk in time,
A                         G2
She's not the same that's all you can say.

She's got the air,   to float above it

I'm sinking in the summer champagne.

F#5                 G5                     D
It only took me one look to understand Emaline,
                                  E
Sometimes I don't know what she's saying.
G               G                                  E
Sometimes I do, Sometimes I don't, Know what she's saying.
           C2   (ritenuto..)       A
But I know,I know, I know what she wants to be-lieve.

It wish it was last Sep - tember.
      A                        G     D2/F#            A  
Don't let me walk away from Emaline    For stupid reasons
        G2
Now I'm talking 'bout money.
G            D2/F#
Money talks, I hate to listen,
A                    G2
But lately it's been screaming in my ear.
G                 D2/F#                  A
Yeah, what advice! Girls need att - en - tion.
                    G2
Or are you diffrent than all mine?
G                   D2/F#
For all it's worth, she's got attention.
A                     G2
But people accuse you black and white.

Ending:
    E
Now I've heard enough, I'll tell you what.
       G/B       C2
Really shouldn't sit here and whine,

I'll take you down to see my Emaline.
