Intro: GG5CAm7Dsus4DGG/F#EmGmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
CC/BAm7Am7/DA not so very ordinary girl or name
GG/F#EmGmaj7CG
But who's to blame for a love that wouldn't bloom
Cmaj7GGmaj7
For the hearts that never played in tune
Am7G/BCG/B
Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing
Am7G/BCEm9
Take away the words that rhyme, it doesn't mean a thing
AmD7susD7GG/F#EmGmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
CC/BAm7Am7/D
We tripped the light and danced together to the moon
GG/F#EmGmaj7CG
But where was June? No it never came around
Cmaj7GGmaj7
If it did, it never made a sound
Am7G/BCG/B
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast
Am7G/BCEm9
Catching all the words but then the meaning going past
GB7Em
And God, I miss the girl
GC
And I'd go a thousand times around the world just to be
CmG
Closer to her than to me
GG/F#EmGmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
CC/BAm7Am7/D
I never knew her but I loved her just the same
GG/F#EmGmaj7CG
I loved her name. Wished that I had found a way
Cmaj7GGmaj7
And the reasons that would make her stay
Am7G/BCG/B
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest
Am7G/BCEm9
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best
GB7Em
Oh, how I miss the girl
GC
And I'd go a million times around the world just to say
CmG
She had been mine for a day.
