2 

Capo 2


Verse: 
G                                Bm 
It wasn't supposed to be like this, another dose of unhappiness 
Em                    C 
I gave it all and managed to get shot down yet again 
G              Bm      
So I got drunk, had sex with all your friends 
Em                        C 
You told me that I should never call your house again 


 
G   D  Am  C      G   D         Am   C 
Emily, Emily oh, you saved the day 
G   D  Am  C      Em    Am         C 
Emily, Emily oh, when you threw me away 

G                      D            Am                      C 
She was always such a pretty girl, nobody like her in the world 
G                      D            Am                C 
A little piece of heavenly that no one else could stand 
G                   D               Am                C 
I see her in my dreams at night, I see you when I close my eyes 
G             D           Am        C 
I just can't seem to shake, Emily 


verse 2: 

G                             Bm 
You got your money and I got cast outside thrown out on my ass 
Em                         C 
In the city with no one else, no where else to go 
G                      Bm 
So then I hooked up, with a model from Singapore 
Em        C 
Emily I sure am glad that you didn't want me anymore 


Chorus: 
G   D  Am  C      G   D         Am   C 
Emily, Emily oh, you saved the day 
G   D  Am  C      Em    Am         C 
Emily, Emily oh, when you threw me away 

G                      D            Am                      C 
She was always such a pretty girl, nobody like her in the world 
G                      D            Am                C 
A little piece of heavenly that no one else could stand 
G                   D               Am                C 
I see her in my dreams at night, I see you when I close my eyes 
G             D           Am        C 
I just can't seem to shake, Emily 


Bridge: 
G Bm Em C  (3x) 

She was always such a pretty girl, nobody like her in the world 
A little piece of heavenly that no one else could stand 
See her in my dreams at night, I see her when I close my eyes 
                                C 
I just can't seem to shake, Emily, yeah 


G   D  Am  C      G   D         Am   C 
Emily, Emily oh, you saved the day 
G   D  Am  C      G   D         Am   C 
Emily, Emily oh, you saved the day 
G   D  Am  C       
Emily, Emily oh    
G   D  Am  C      G  
Emily, Emily oh, you saved my ass
