James Arthur - Emily

[intro]
Eb
  Ooh

[verse 1]
     Eb
Dear Emily
I really wanna write this carefully
Bb
Now that we're a family
It's only you, your mum, and me
     Cm
Dear Emily
We're gonna live forever happily
          Ab
I'm gonna ask your mum to marry me
But there's some things you need to know
Eb
 Your papa was a rolling stone
Playing in a sold-out show, yeah
Bb
 Taking all the highs and the lows
But living with an empty soul, yeah
Cm
 And if you ever read the things they wrote
I hope that you can let them go
Ab
 I was living in a different world
Before I had my little girl, yeah

[chorus]
Eb
Emily
                                   Bb
When I hear you cry, I'll sing you back to sleep
                               Cm
Do you know you inspire all my melodiеs?
                                          Ab
'Cause you make me a bеtter man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily

[verse 2]
     Eb
Dear Emily
I saw you way before you came to me
         Bb
'Cause I picked out your name and wrote it on paper
                                        Cm
I needed life and life came and gave me Emily (It's all Emily)
Will I be good enough for you?
             Ab
The truth is I'm afraid of everyone and anything that could hurt you

[chorus]
    Eb
Oh, Emily
                                  Bb
If you ever feel lonely, just sit next to me
                               Cm
Since we brought you home with us, you're everything
                                          Ab
'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily, yeah

[bridge]
Eb                    Bb
 Oh, you're all I'll ever need, baby
           Cm
I've been alive
                     Ab
You're all I'll ever need, oh no, no-no
Eb         Eb/D
 When I'm looking at your tiny feet
            Cm
I feel your heartbeat here inside of me
         Ab
I feel a love that I just can't believe

[chorus]
    Eb
Oh, Emily
                                   Bb
When I hear you cry, I'll sing you back to sleep
                                   Cm
Oh, do you know you inspire all my melodies?
                                          Ab
'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily

[outro]
    Eb
Oh, Emily
                                  Bb
If you ever feel lonely, just sit next to me
                                              Cm
Oh, since we brought you home with us, you're everything, you're everything
                                          Ab
'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be
Because of you, Emily
