AUBREY
(David Gates)

G G5, C Am7, Dsus4 D
G   G/F#           Em   Gmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
         C         C/B          Am7  Am7/D
A not so very ordi—nary girl or name
             G G/F# Em    Gmaj7      C        G
But who's to blame  for a love  that wouldn't bloom
Cmaj7                       G             Gma7
For   the hearts that never played in tune
Am7           G/B         C            G/B
Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing
Am7           G/B                  C              Em9
Take away the words that rhyme, it doesn't mean a thing
Am D7sus D7

G   G/F#           Em   Gmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
               C                C/B             Am7  Am7/D
We tripped the light and danced together to the moon
              G G/F# Em    Gmaj7   C        G
But where was June?  No it never came around
Cmaj7               G             Gma7
If it did, it never made a sound
Am7         G/B           C             G/B
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast
Am7              G/B                C             Em9
Catching all the words but then the meaning going past

G B7                     Em
     And God, I miss the girl
             G                              C
     And I'd go a thousand times around the world just to be
     Cm                    G
     Closer to her than to me

G   G/F#           Em   Gmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
        C              C/B                Am7  Am7/D
I never knew her but I loved her just the same
            G G/F# Em             Gmaj7 C                G
I loved her name.     Wished that I     had found a way
Cmaj7                      G             Gma7
And the reasons that would make her stay
Am7               G/B         C                  G/B
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest
Am7                 G/B              C              Em9
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best

G B7                     Em
     Oh, how I miss the girl
             G                             C
     And I'd go a million times around the world just to say
     Cm                      G
     She had been mine for a day.
