[INTRO]
[Gmaj9] [Dmaj9] [A] [Gmaj9]
[Gmaj9] [Dmaj9] [A] [Gmaj9]
[VERSE]
[Gmaj9]I wish it w[Dmaj9]as last Sep[A]tember
When we could lose our[Gmaj9]selves in crowds everyday
'Cause Emal[Dmaj9]ine don't walk in t[A]ime
She's not the same, that's [Gmaj9]all you can say
[CHORUS]
But when [E7]I've heard enough I tell myself
That we've [E7/D]learned [E7/G]our [Cmaj9]lesson
But I don't [A]want to walk away from Ema[Gmaj9]line
[VERSE]
[Dmaj9] They're talking [A]now
Does she [Gmaj9]know what they're saying'
She's got the a[Dmaj9]ir to float above i[A]t
I'm sinking in this, [Gmaj9]someone should pay
[VERSE]
She's dear to [Dmaj9]me and so expe[A]nsive
Now I'm not [Gmaj9]talking 'bout money
When money t[Dmaj9]alks, I hate to liste[A]n
But lately it's been [Gmaj9]screaming in my ear
[CHORUS]
But when [E7]I've heard enough I tell myself
That we've [E7/D#]learned [E7/C#]our [Cmaj9]lesson
But I don't [A]want to walk away from Ema[Gmaj9]line [A] [Dmaj9]
[BRIDGE]
[F#m7] It only took me one [Gmaj9]look to understand Emal[Dmaj9]ine
Sometimes I don't know what she's [E7]saying
[Gmaj9] Sometimes I do
Sometimes I don't know what she's [E7] saying
But I know, [C]I know
I know what she [A]wants to believe
PIANO SOLO:
[Gmaj9] I wish it wa[Dmaj9]s last Sep[A]tember [Gmaj9]
[Gmaj9] [Dmaj9] [A] [Gmaj9]
[Gmaj9] [Dmaj9] [A] [Gmaj9]
[E7] [C] Don't [G/A]let me walk away from Ema[Gmaj9]line
[VERSE]
[Dmaj9] For stupid reas[A]ons
Now I'm [Gmaj9]talking 'bout money
When money t[Dmaj9]alks, I hate to list[A]en
But lately it's been [G]scream - [G/F#]ing [Em7]in [G/D]my [Em7]ear
[VERSE]
Oh one [Dmaj9]advice, girls need at[A]tention
Or are you [Gmaj9]different than all mine'
For what it's wo[Dmaj9]rth, she's got at[A]tention
For people like y[Gmaj9]ou see black and white
[CHORUS]
Now [E7]I've heard enough, I'll tell you what
Really [E7/D#]should - [E7/C#]n't [Cmaj9]sit here and whine
I'll [A]take you down to see my Ema[Gmaj9]line
