Emily

Here's another one i wrote, this one's on my player if you care to hear the music along with it, its a live recording so bare with the intro stuff...

V1 It was 3 months ago since i left her alone
and i sought my fortunes at sea
And the warmth of her kiss turned to ice on my lips
In the face of the cruel ocean breeze

CH When the day is through the ship and the crew
Risked their lives for a penney or two
So I'm out to sea for sweet Emily
Until I come back home to you

V2 It was 3 months ago since i sold my soul
To make the money for the wedding bells
But the sun in the sky never saw fit to shine
On these deepest pits of hell

CH repeat

V3 Now its been 5 years even though her tears
Can't restore me still she weeps
But theres no hope for me, at the bottom of the sea
For the Devil my soul he keeps, I said the devil my soul he keeps

Ch When the day is through the ship and the crew
Lost their lives for a penney or two
Still I'm out to sea for sweet Emily
Until I come back home to you...
