[Verse 1]
     D
When Emma falls in love,
      A
 she paces the floor
Em                    G
Closes the blinds and locks
          D A Em G
 the door
     D
When Emma falls in love,
     A
 she calls up her mom
Em                        G
Jokes about the ways that this
                D A Em G
could go wrong
    D                   A
She waits and takes her time
                    Em
 'cause little miss sunshine
        G                 D    A Em G
always thinks it's gonna rain
     Em
When Emma falls in love,
                      A
 I know that boy will never
 be the same

[Chorus]
       G
'Cause she's the kind of
     D                   A
girl that you can't put down
        G         D
Like if Cleopatra grew up
            A
 in a small town
            G
And all the bad boys
           D
 would be good boys
        A
If they only had a
 chance to love her
       C
And to tell you the truth,
                        G
 sometimes I wish I was her

[Verse 2]
     D
When Emma falls in love,
       A
 it's all in her face
Em                G
Hangs on her like stars
             D  A Em G
 in outer space
     D
When Emma falls in love,
    A
she disappears
       Em
And we all just laugh after
 G                   D    A Em G
seein' it all these years
     D                      A
When Emma falls apart, it's when
 she's alone
    Em                    G
She takes on the pain and bears
           D   A Em G
 it on her own
            D
'Cause when Emma falls in love
       A
 she's leadin' for keeps
          Em          G
She won't walk away unless she knows,
      A                 G    A
she absolutely has to leave

[Verse 3]
          Em
And she's so New York
      G
when she's in LA
        D
She ran through herself
                  A
 and love the way I did
           Em                G
And she'll call you out, she put
you in your place
     Em            D
When Emma falls in love,
     C
 I'm lovin' it
D                   A
Emma met a boy with eyes like a man
Em                       G
Turns out her heart fits right
                     D     A Em G
in the palm of his hands
    D                    A
Now he'll be her shelter when
 it rains
       Em
Little does he know his whole
 G                D A Em G
 world's about to change

[Chorus]
       G
'Cause she's the kind of girl
D                   A
 that you can't put down
        G         D
Like if Cleopatra grew up
            A
in a small town
            G
And all the bad boys would

 be good boys
        A
If they only had a
chance to love her
       C
And to tell you the truth,
                       G
sometimes I wish I was her

[Outro]

Yeah between me and you,
       D                 G
some times I wish I was her
