D# Dear Emily I really wanna write this carefully A# Now that we're a family It's only you, your mum, and me Cm Dear Emily We're gonna live forever happily G# I'm gonna ask your mum to marry me But there's some things you need to know Your papa was a rolling stone Playing in a sold-out show, yeah Taking all the highs and the lows But living with an empty soul, yeah And if you ever read the things they wrote I hope that you can let them go I was living in a different world Before I had my little girl, yeah Chorus: D# Emily A# When I hear you cry, I'll sing you back to sleep Cm Do you know you inspire all my melodies? G# 'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be Because of you, Emily Dear Emily I saw you way before you came to me 'Cause I picked out your name and wrote it on paper I needed life and life came and gave me Emily (It's all Emily) Will I be good enough for you? The truth is I'm afraid of everyone and anything that could hurt you Chorus: Oh, Emily If you ever feel lonely, just sit next to me Since we brought you home with us, you're everything 'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be Because of you, Emily, yeah D# A# Oh, you're all I'll ever need, baby Cm I've been alive G# You're all I'll ever need, oh no, no-no D# A#/D When I'm looking at your tiny feet Cm I feel your heartbeat here inside of me G# I feel a love that I just can't believe Chorus: Oh, Emily When I hear you cry, I'll sing you back to sleep Oh, do you know you inspire all my melodies? 'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be Because of you, Emily Oh, Emily If you ever feel lonely, just sit next to me Oh, since we brought you home with us, you're everything, you're everything 'Cause you make me a better man than I'll ever be, ever be, ever be Because of you, Emily You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  Cm  D  D#  Em  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
