A not so very ordinary girl or name

But who's to blame           for a love

That wouldn't bloom

For the hearts that never played in tune

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

  And Aubrey was her name

But where was June?           No it ne.....ver came around

Cmaj7                    Em7            Em9/G
     If it did, it never made a sound
[Chorus 1]
Am7         G/B           C             G/B
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast

Am7              G/B                C             Em/C#  Dsus4  D
Catching all the words but then the meaning going past
[Chorus 2]
     B              Em7
And God, I miss the girl

        G7                             C
And I'd go a thousand times around the world just to be

Closer to her than to me
[Instrumental] D/F# Em Gmaj7 C C/B Am7 Am7/D [Intro Repeat]
G     D/F#           Em   Gmaj7/D
  And Aubrey was her name

        C              C/B                Am7  Am7/D
I never knew her but I loved her just the same
[Verse 3]
            G     D/F# Em             Emmaj9            Gmaj7   Em/C#
I loved her name.         Wished that I             had found a way

Cmaj7                                     Em7   Em9/G
      And the reasons that would make her stay
[Chorus 1]
Am7               G/B         C                  G/B
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest

Am7                 G/B              C              Em/C#  Dsus4  D
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best
[Chorus 3]
    B              Em7
Oh, how I miss the girl

        G7                            C
And I'd go a million times around the world just to say

She had been mine for a day.
