Intro
E Emaj7 Dbm Emaj7 A Dbm F#m7 A E


    Emaj7          Dbm  E
And Aubrey was her name
         A        Dbm          F#m7  A6
A not so very ordinary girl or name
             E     Emaj7  Dbm
But who`s to blame
      G#   C#m                Bbm7b5  Amaj7
For a love      that wouldn`t bloom
                          E
For the hearts that never played in tune
F#m7          G#m         A            Emaj7
Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing
F#m7          Emaj7               Amaj7          Bbm7b5 B7 E
Take away the words that rhyme it doesn`t mean a thing

                   Dbm  Emaj7
And Aubrey was her name
               A                  Dbm           F#m7 A6
We tripped the light and danced together to the moon
              Emaj7 Dbm
But where was June
      G#    C#m       Bbm7b5  Amaj7
No it never..... came around
                   E
If it did it never made a sound
F#m7        Emaj7         A             Emaj7
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast
F#m7             G#m                A             Bbm7b5  E  G#
Catching all the words but then the meaning going past


                   Dbm
But God I miss the girl
        E7                             A
And I`d go a thousand times around the world just to be
Am                    E   Emaj7 Dbm  Emaj7  A  Dbm  F#m7 A  E
Closer to her than to me...........


    Emaj7          Dbm  Emaj7
And Aubrey was her name
        A              Dbm                F#m7 A6
I never knew her but I loved her just the same
            E    Emaj7  Dbm
I loved her name
          G#  C#m                Bbm7b5  Amaj7
Wish that I....... had found the way
                           E
And the reasons that would make her stay
F#m7              G#m          A                 Emaj7
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest
F#m7                G#m             Amaj7          Bbm7b5  E G#7
If I can`t have the one I want I`ll do without the best


                   Dbm
But how I miss the girl
        E7                            Dbm
And I`d go a million times around the world just to say
F#m7b5/G                E
She had been mine for a day
