CAPO on 1st fret
[D/C#] x40232
Intro
[D]
Ooh
Verse 1
[D]
Dear Emily
I really wanna write this carefully
[A]
Now that we're a family
It's only you, your mum, and me
[Bm]
Dear Emily
We're gonna live forever happily
[G]
I'm gonna ask your mum to marry me
But there's some things you need to know
[D]
Your papa was a rolling stone
Playing in a sold-out show, yeah
[A]
Taking all the highs and the lows
But living with an empty soul, yeah
[Bm]
And if you ever read the things they wrote
I hope that you can let them go
[G]
I was living in a different world
Before I had my little girl, yeah
Chorus
[D]
Emily
[A]
When I hear you cry, I'll sing you back to sleep
[Bm]
Do you know you inspire all my melodiеs?
[G]
'Cause you make me a bеtter man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily
Verse 2
[D]
Dear Emily
I saw you way before you came to me
[A]
'Cause I picked out your name and wrote it on paper
[Bm]
I needed life and life came and gave me Emily (It's all Emily)
Will I be good enough for you?
[G]
The truth is I'm afraid of everyone and anything that could hurt you
Chorus
[D]
Oh, Emily
[A]
If you ever feel lonely, just sit next to me
[Bm]
Since we brought you home with us, you're everything
[G]
'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily, yeah
Bridge
[D] [A]
Oh, you're all I'll ever need, baby
[Bm]
I've been alive
[G]
You're all I'll ever need, oh no, no-no
[D] [D/C#]
When I'm looking at your tiny feet
[Bm]
I feel your heartbeat here inside of me
[G]
I feel a love that I just can't believe
Chorus
[D]
Oh, Emily
[A]
When I hear you cry, I'll sing you back to sleep
[Bm]
Oh, do you know you inspire all my melodies?
[G]
'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily
Outro
[D]
Oh, Emily
[A]
If you ever feel lonely, just sit next to me
[Bm]
Oh, since we brought you home with us, you're everything, you're everything
[G]
'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily
