VERSE 1
——-
A D
Emily Chambers would make it pay
A D
Everyone knew she’d turn out that way
Bm D
She turned her back and she’ll be O.K
Bm E
But she’s not O.K at all
VERSE 2
——-
A D
Every night with the radio on (2nd time round ‘with the lamp light on’)
A D
Emily fears that the day won’t come
Bm D
The moon is there to do her harm
Bm E
She’s not alright at all
CHORUS
——
D E
Don’t get arrested, don’t buy a machine gun,
A Bm
You’re not on the run and you’re not on the scene.
D E
You’re not so cool and you’re not a jerk,
A Bm
You may be a villain but no Patty Hearst
D E
You’re Emily Chambers and what’s worse
A Bm
Is a whipping wind and a box in a hearse.
D E
And a trigger in your head and a pen in your hand,
A Bm
And the pain in the verse and the flat drying land,
D E
And the thin of the air and a pain that hurts
A Bm D E
You’re Emily Chambers in the universe, oh, oh
REPEAT VERSES 1 & 2
CHORUS
OUTRO (Repeat to fade)
——
A Bm
Emily Chambers would make it pay
A Bm
Everyone knew she’d turn out that way
