A Bottle of wine, and an old 45,

rifle in the corner that her grandfather left her when he died,
G
Said no surprise,
A
I’ve had to use it quite a few times,
A G A
So Jay, don’t you ever let us down,
G
Don’t you ever,
A G D
I’ll have to shoot you and no one will hear a sound…

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jamie_t/emilys_heart_tab_ver_2.html ]
D Em B
She said, get your coat, come on,
D Em
To the dog track with the money right,
B
Yeah we had some fun,
D Em G
Left with more ‘cause we won,
D Em B
I was under investigation on suspicion of doing her wrong,
D Em B
She said, You’ve become a villain,
D Em B
accused of a hit and run,
D Em G D
Said, she hit me first, and I, say it’s the worst that I ever felt,
Em B
In a broken heart.
D Em B
Bloodstains on her shirt crease and,
D Em B
hope she pays the dues,
D Em B D Em
When I left she said, that your last breath will be down by the station at 2,
B
Swear she shot me down.

D G D
She said I’m a user, and she’s a loser with a gun,
D G D
I said if you choose to it becomes hard to include anyone,
D G D
So if you stay, put it away, or should I run?
D G D
She said I think you know the answer to your question,
D G D
So for the smiles, and all of the miles that the engine’s done,
D G D
The further I drive away the closer we become,
D G D G
So if I stay, would you put it away, and forgive this one son?
Em G
She said Jay I think you know the answer to your question…
