Verse 1
G                            D 
It wasn't supposed to be like this 
               Em 
Another dose of unhappiness 
                 C                            G 
I gave it all and managed to get shot down yet again 
 
So I got drunk 
D                             Em 
Had s*x with all your friends 
              C 
You told me to never call your house again 
 
Chorus
G D A C    G     D       C 
Emily,    you saved the day 
G D A C    Em        C 
Emily,    when you threw me away 
 
Verse 2
          G 
She was always such a pretty girl 
  D 
Nobody like her in the world 
    Em 
A little piece of heavenly 
      C 
That no one else could stand 
   G 
I see her in my dreams at night 
   D 
I see you when I close my eyes 
   Em                             C 
I just can't seem to shake you, Emily 
 
Verse 3
G                           D 
You got your money and I got cast 
                           Em 
Outside thrown out on my ass 
                C                               G 
In the city with no one else, no where else to go 
So I hooked up 
D                              Em 
with this model from Singapore 
                     C 
Emily, I sure am glad you didn't want me anymore 
 
Chorus

Emily,    when you threw me away

A little piece of heavenly

I see you when I close my eyes

I just can't seem to shake you, Emily 
Yeah
