Miss Emilie
D
I wake up in the morning is a state of frighe
On the wrong side of the bed all night
G D
Waking to the broken heart - Inside my head
A
Open my eyes and I move my hand
Arond the pillow to the nightstand
D
And straighten miss Emilie's picture by my bed
Go to the office to work things up
pour three fingers burbourn in my coffee cup
G D
Cry on my best friend's shoulder - down the hall
A
I feel so lonely, when I close the door
I bite my nails and I walk the floor
D
And straighten miss Emilie's picture on my wall
CHOROUS
G D A D
Look out my window and what do I see, Nothing but pain looking back at me
All that my future means to me,
A
Is tossing yesterday's love out into the wind
D
And straighten miss Emilie's picture now and then
I leave my office and I go downtown, to a little bar we all hang around
G D
Laugh -drink beer -shoot pool - and have a ball
A
When the laughter stops - and the hurting takes hold
I reach in my pocket for my billfold
D
And show miss Emilies picture to them all
I stagger in the house and I slam the door
Scatter my clothes all over the floor
G D
Wishing I could do the same thing inside my head
A
I drink a beer and I eat a bite, Just before I turn out the ligh
D
I straighten miss Emilie's picture by my bed
(REPEAT CHOROUS)
