Written by Johnny Mercer and Johnny Mandel
D7M G6/9 Em7 A7
Emily, Emily, Emily
Em7 A7 D6 D9 D7/9 G Gdim
Has the murmuring sound of May
A B G#7 C#m7 F#7
All silver bells, coral shells, carousels
Bm7 Bm7/E E7 E7/13 A7 A7/13- Gdim A7/13-
And the laughter of children at play they say
D7M G6/9 Em7 A7
"Emily, Emily, Emily"
Em7 A7 D D9 D D7 D7/9 D G
And we fade to a marvelous view
Gdim Bm F#7 Em7 F#m Fdim F#m B7
Two lovers alone and out of sight
Cdim B7 G G/F# Em7 A A7 Cdim B7
Seeing images in the firelight
A7 G G/F# A7 G F#m B7
As my eyes visualize a family
Cdim B7 Em7 A7 D
They see dreamily, Emily
Interlude: Em7 A7 D D9 D D7/9 D G Gdim Bm F#7 Em7 F#m Fdim F#m B7
A7 G G/F# A7 G F#m B7
As my eyes visualize a family
Cdim B7 Em7 A7 A7/13- D G/B A7/13- D6
They see Emily, Emily, too
