Emma

[Intro] 
E  F#7  A  E
 
[Verse 1]
E                   F#7
Emma, I can’t write songs like you can
     A                                  E
So I don’t know what I’m trying here to do
E                                    F#7
'Cause every word I write is just my brain to my hands
     A                                E
But you lay out the deepest parts of you
E                 F#7
Emma, I know that long as we are able
     A                                  E
That we’re not doing labels, and that’s fine
E                  F#7
Emma, I’m not here looking for an answer
          A                                E
I’m just looking for your hands to stay in mine
 
[Pre-chorus 1]
                          F#m
‘Cause your name is on my lips
                        A
If I don’t sing it I’ll eclipse the stuff I’ve yet to figure out
                     F#m
So I’m yelling in my car
                           F#dim
Trying to get to where you are
 
[Chorus]
E               F#7
Emma, I plan my days around your calls
    A                                    E
And chisel at all of my walls so you can see
E                    F#7
That Emma, I’m not a friend or foe or stranger
        A                          E
I’m not innocent or dangerous, I’m me
E                F#7
Emma, I’ve never ever been a fighter
      A                            E
I’m a hold-me-even-tighter kind of guy
E              F#7
So Emma, I can pretend that we’re the same
          A                                E
But every time you say my name I touch the sky
 
[Bridge]
N.C                  E
‘Cause Emma, I’m eighteen
         F#7                                   A    A E/G# A/E
And I’ve learned way more than I’m supposed to know
                   E
But Emma, I’m eighteen
        F#7                                       A E/G# A/E
And you show me the world for the first time even so
     A E/G# A
Whoa
     E F#7 Amaj7 E E
Emma
 
 
[Verse]
E              F#7
Emma, I’ve got one hand in my pocket
        A                             E
And the other one is knocking on your door
 
E               F#7
Emma, I haven’t seen you since December
        A                              E
So your eyes make me remember what I’m here for
E                  F#7
Emma, you probably didn’t even see it
      A                          E
But I felt your heart beating so fast
E                     F#7
So, Emma, you can say you want me to go
         A                                  E
But till then, I’ll kiss you, so maybe this lasts
