Miss Emily's Picture Songtext
von John Conlee

I got this song off a live performance tape so its probably wrong in places
So anybody that has an accurate tab please let me know.
Thanks, roger
Capo 2nd fret
D i wake up in the morning with a stage of fright
On the wrong side of the bed all night
G clinging to the broken heart inside my head d
Open my eyes and i a move my hand
To around her pillow to the night stand
And straighten miss emily′s picture by my d bed
D go to the office and the works piled up
Pour three fingers burboun in my coffee cup
G and cry on my best friends shoulder down the hall d
I feel so lonely when i a close the door
Bite my nails and i walk the floor
And straighten miss emily's picture on my d wall


Chorus:
D look out my window and what do i see
Nothing but pain looking a back at me
D and all that my future means to me
Is g tossing yesterdays a love out into the wind
And straighten miss emily′s picture now and d then

Verse 2
D leave my office and i go downtown
To a little bar we all hang around
G laugh and drink beer, shoot pool and have a ball d
When the laughing stops and the a hurtin take hold
Reach in my pocket for my billfold
And show miss emily's picture to them {d}all
D i stagger in my house and i slam the door
Scatter my clothes all over the floor
G wishing i could do the same thing in my head d
Drink a beer and a eat a bite
And just before i turn out the light
I straighten miss emily's picture by my d bed
Chorus
