Miss Emily's Picture Lyrics
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
