Guster – Emily Ivory (Guitar)

C
Blue skies are opening up

G                             F
Soon there will be gardens to grow

C
Emily, now the world is brightening

G                       F
Look around, look around

Stuck in a tower in a forest

Working her needle and her thread

A Sagittarius hoping for something else

She wears her mother's clothes to bed

Emily Ivory waits for the chance of a lifetime

It hasn't happened yet

C            F                           D7
Emily's under a blanket she knit for a love

She hasn't met him yet

She knows one day he'll sweep her away

Big things are coming soon

C
Branch out, a scenery change

                             F
Little birds flown from the nest

C
Emily thought a revolution

                      F
Had come around, come around

She met a Gemini and bid her world goodbye

She wore her mother's wedding dress

C            F                        D7
Emily Ivory waits from an ivory tower

F
Just like the one she knew

C            F                           D7
Tying her blankets together and weaving a ladder

F
Just like she used to do

C                  Am
And every day she's dreaming away

D7                    F
Eighty-five miles an hour

C            F                    D7
Emily Ivory's ready to make her escape

F
Big things are coming soon

F        C
It's one step

Emily's on a vacation, she's counting her stars

Somewhere in Mexico

C           Am              D7
She knows one day he'll sweep her away

Carry her over the border

Big things are coming soon

And every day she's dreaming away

Everything's coming together
