Aubrey (intro) (midi) (sample)

G - Bm - Em - G - C - Em - Am - D

G Bm Em - G

1. And Aubrey was her name,

C Em Am - D7

a not so very ordinary girl or name.

G - Bm - Em G - C Em - C

But who's to blame for a love that wouldn't bloom,

G

for the hearts that never played in tune.

Am Bm C Bm

Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing,

Am Bm C Em - D - D7

take away the words that rhyme, it doesn't mean a thing.

G Bm Em - G

2. And Aubrey was her name,

C Em Am - D7

we tripped the light and danced together to the moon.

G - Bm - Em G - C Em - C

But where was June? No it never came around,

G

if it did, it never made a sound.

Am Bm C Bm

Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast,

Am Bm C Em

catching all the words, but then the meaning going past.

G - B7 Em

And God, I miss the girl,

G G7 C

and I'd go a thousand times around the world just to be

Cm G - Bm - Em - G - C - Em - Am - D

closer to her than to me.

G Bm Em - G

3. And Aubrey was her name,

C Em Am - D7

I never knew her, but I loved her just the same.

G - Bm - Em G - C Em - C

I loved her name, wished that I had found a way,

G

and the reasons that would make her stay.

Am Bm C Bm

I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest,

Am Bm C Em

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 G7 C

and I'd go a million times around the world just to say

Cm G

she had been mine for that day.
