Miss Emily's Picture chords by Jack Greene
Verse 1
D
I wake up in the morning in a state of fright
On the wrong side of the bed all night
G
Clinging to the broken
D
heart inside my head
Em
Open my eyes and
A
I move my hands
Em
A
From round her pillow to the nightstand
Em
And straighten Miss Emily's
A
D
picture by my bed
Go to the office, the work's piled up
Pour three fingers bourbon in my coffee cup
G
I cry on my best friend's shoulder
D
down the hall
Em
A
Feel so lonely when I close the door
Em
Bite my nails and I
A
walk the floor
Em
Straighten Miss Emily's
A
D
picture on my wall
G
D
Look out my window and what do I see?
G
D
A
Nothin' but pain lookin' back at me
D
G
All that my future means to me
D
Em
A
Is tossin' yesterday's love
Em
out into the wind
And straightin' me a similes
A
D
picture now and then
A
D
I leave my of fice and I go downtown
To a little bar we all hang around
G
Laugh, drink beer,
D
shoot pool, have a ball
A
D
Em
When the laughter stops
A
and the hurtin' takes
Em
A
Reach in my pocket for my billfold
Em
And show Miss Emily's
A
D
A
D
picture to them all
I stagger in my house and
I slam the door
Scatter my clothes all over the floor
G
Wishing I could do the
D
same thing in my head
Em
A
I drink a beer and I eat a bite,
Em
A
just before I turn out the lights
Em
I straighten Miss Emily's
A
D
picture by my bed
G
D
Look out my window and what do I see?
G
D
A
Nothing but pain looking back at me
D
G
D
All that my future means to me
A
Is tossin' yesterday's love
Em
out into the wind
And straightin' Miss Emily's
A
D
A
D
picture now and then
Thank for
Miss Emily's Picture
