AUBREY
(David Gates)
G G5, C Am7, Dsus4 D
G G/F# Em Gmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
C C/B Am7 Am7/D
A not so very ordi-nary girl or name
G G/F# Em Gmaj7 C G
But who's to blame for a love that wouldn't bloom
Cmaj7 G Gma7
For the hearts that never played in tune
Am7 G/B C G/B
Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing
Am7 G/B C Em9
Take away the words that rhyme, it doesn't mean a thing
Am D7sus D7
G G/F# Em Gmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
C C/B Am7 Am7/D
We tripped the light and danced together to the moon
G G/F# Em Gmaj7 C G
But where was June? No it never came around
Cmaj7 G Gma7
If it did, it never made a sound
Am7 G/B C G/B
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast
Am7 G/B C Em9
Catching all the words but then the meaning going past
G B7 Em
And God, I miss the girl
G C
And I'd go a thousand times around the world just to be
Cm G
Closer to her than to me
G G/F# Em Gmaj7
And Aubrey was her name
C C/B Am7 Am7/D
I never knew her but I loved her just the same
G G/F# Em Gmaj7 C G
I loved her name. Wished that I had found a way
Cmaj7 G Gma7
And the reasons that would make her stay
Am7 G/B C G/B
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest
Am7 G/B C Em9
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best
G B7 Em
Oh, how I miss the girl
G C
And I'd go a million times around the world just to say
Cm G
She had been mine for a day.

Enjoy, STEVE
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BREAD tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
