[Chorus]
E
Emily, it's your life

and you can't live it twice

One day you'll understand

and then you'll take my hand
E
Emily, I love you,
B
and I know you do too
C#m7
You never make no sense,
A
screaming at me in French

E B A
Don't you know you got it easy
E
Emily
what you smoking, what's that stench
B A
Who you screaming out in French
E B A
Did you really think you had me
E
Emily,
that's enough, do as you're told
B A
Acting like you're eight years old
E B A
I give up it's not worth trying
E
Emily, one day I will end up dead
B A
That's the only thing I've said
E B A
That will ever get her smiling, Emily
[Chorus]
E
Emily, it's your life
B
and you can't live it twice
C#m7
One day you'll understand
A
and then you'll take my hand
E
Emily, I love you,
B
and I know you do too
C#m7
You never make no sense,
A
screaming at me in French
E
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Shut up listen to me,

E
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?

E
Emily,
live your life in a balloon
B A
Lock yourself up in your room
E B A
So the world can never reach ya
E
Emily,

B A
Got me falling on my knees,
E B A
Got me praying to Saint Peter
E
Emily,
see the price I have to pay
B A
I would give my life away
E B A
If I knew that I could reach ya
E
Emily,
why you make this hard to me
B A
It's not the way it's meant to be
E B A
I don't never wanna hate ya
[Chorus]
E
Emily, it's your life
B
and you can't live it twice
C#m7
One day you'll understand
A
and then you'll take my hand
E
Emily, I love you,
B
and I know you do too
C#m7
You never make no sense,
A
screaming at me in French
E
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie?
