We could lose ourselves in crowds everyday.
F            C
Cos Emaline, don't walk in time,
G                         F
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.

But lately it's been screamin' in my ear.

But I don't wanna walk away from Ema-line.


Bridge:
E                  F                     C
It only took me one look to understand Emaline,
                                  D
Sometimes I don't know what she's saying.
F               F                                  D
Sometimes I do, Sometimes I don't, Know what she's saying.
           Bb   (ritenuto..)       G
But I know,I know, I know what she wants to be-lieve.

         G
Don't let me walk away from Emaline    For stupid reasons
        F
Now I'm talking 'bout money.
F            C
Money talks, I hate to listen,

But lately it's been screaming in my ear.
F                 C                  G

                    F
Or are you diffrent than all mine?
F                   C
For all it's worth, she's got attention.

From people like you see black and white.
