[Verse]
     D                       A 
When Emma falls in love, she paces the floor 
Em                    G              D A Em G 
Closes the blinds and locks the door 
     D                       A 
When Emma falls in love, she calls up her mom 
Em                        G                       D A Em G 
Jokes about the ways that this one could go wrong 
    D                   A                       Em              G                 D    A Em G 
She waits and takes her time 'cause little miss sunshine always thinks it's gonna rain 
     Em                                       A 
When Emma falls in love, I know that boy will never be the same
[Chorus]
       G                     D                   A 
'Cause she's the kind of book that you can't put down 
        G         D                  A 
Like if Cleopatra grew up in a small town 
            G                 D 
And all the bad boys would be good boys 
        A 
If they only had a chance to love her 
       C                                         G 
And to tell you the truth, sometimes I wish I was her
[Verse]
     D                        A 
When Emma falls in love, it's all on her face 
Em                    G                 D  A Em G 
Hangs in the air like stars in outer space 
     D                      A 
When Emma falls in love, she disappears 
       Em                   G                   D    A Em G 
And we all just laugh after seein' it all these years 
     D                      A 
When Emma falls apart, it's when she's alone 
    Em                    G               D   A Em G 
She takes on the pain and bears it on her own 
            D                        A 
'Cause when Emma falls in love she's in it for keeps 
          Em          G                   A                 G    A 
She won't walk away unless she knows, she absolutely has to leave
[Chorus]
       G                     D                   A 
'Cause she's the kind of book that you can't put down 
        G         D                  A 
Like if Cleopatra grew up in a small town 
            G                 D 
And all the bad boys would be good boys 
        A 
If they only had a chance to love her 
       C                                         G 
And to tell you the truth, sometimes I wish I was her

[Bridge]
            Em               G 
Well, she's so New York when she's in LA 
          D                                 A 
She won't lose herself in love the way that I did 
              Em                   G 
'Cause she'll call you out, she'll put you in your place 
     Em            D/F#      C 
When Emma falls in love, I'm learning
[Verse]
D                   A 
Emma met a boy with eyes like a man 
Em                       G                        D    A Em G 
Turns out her heart fits right in the palm of his hand 
    D                    A 
Now he'll be her shelter when it rains 
       Em                     G                D A Em G 
Little does he know his whole world's about to change
[Chorus]
       G                     D                   A 
'Cause she's the kind of book that you can't put down 
        G         D                  A 
Like if Cleopatra grew up in a small town 
            G                 D 
And all the bad boys would be good boys 
        A 
If they only had a chance to love her 
       C                                         G 
And to tell you the truth, sometimes I wish I was her  
        Em                    D/F#              G 
Yeah, between me and you, sometimes I wish I was her
