B F#/A# G#m Bmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
E E/D# C#m7 C#m7/F#
C# not so very ordinary girl or name
[Verse 1]
B F#/A# G#m G#mmaj9 Bmaj7
But who's to blame for a love
G#m/F Emaj7
That wouldn't bloom
G#m7 G#m9
For the hearts that never played in tune
[Chorus 1]
C#m7 B/D# E B/D#
Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing
C#m7 B/D# E G#m/F
Take away the words that rhyme, it doesn't mean a thing
G#m7 F#sus4 F#
[Intro Repeat]
B F#/A# G#m Bmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
E E/D# C#m7 C#m7/F#
We tripped the light and danced together to the moon
[Verse 2]
B F#/A# G#m G#mmaj9 Bmaj7 G#m/F
But where was June? No it ne.....ver came around
Emaj7 G#m7 G#m9
If it did, it never made a sound
[Chorus 1]
C#m7 B/D# E B/D#
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast
C#m7 B/D# E G#m/F
Catching all the words but then the meaning going past
[Chorus 2]
Bmaj7 G#mmaj9 G#m7
And God, I miss the girl
B7 E
And I'd go a thousand times around the world just to be
Em B
Closer to her than to me
[Instrumental]
F#/A# G#m Bmaj7 E E/D# C#m7 C#m7/F#
[Intro Repeat]
B F#/A# G#m Bmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
E E/D# C#m7 C#m7/F#
I never knew her but I loved her just the same
[Verse 3]
B F#/A# G#m G#mmaj9 Bmaj7 G#m/F
I loved her name. Wished that I had found a way
Emaj7 G#m7 G#m9
And the reasons that would make her stay
[Chorus 1]
C#m7 B/D# E B/D#
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest
C#m7 B/D# E G#m/F
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best
[Chorus 3]
Bmaj7 G#mmaj9 G#m7
Oh, how I miss the girl
B7 E
And I'd go a million times around the world just to say
Em B
She had been mine for a day.
