Emma EmRumble Emma Rumble
Your black hair's hanging Clow
Your Dnaked arms are glistening And frozen from the snow
Emma EmRumble Emma tell me For if you don't let me kCnow
My hDeart's already taken So tomorrow I will go

And let it bGathe you let me know you
You who have been so Cconfined
By the bDeauty that you sEmuffer's
Why your Bhair is growing wEmhite
Your Ahair is growing Emwhite

Why do you stir in such dCistress?
Late in the Devening you were sleeping You were dreaming I should guess
Do not tEmouch me do not hold me

And iDmplied to me through wild eyes Those things you can't confess
Emma Gsadly I must leave thee
As my true love waits Calone

Her Dbody lay beaten there And covered in your clothes

The Dnight is hot and heavy now
And I'm walking down the rEmoad
I'm wAalking down the Emroad
I'm Amwalking down the Croad

Why do you stir in such distress?

Late in the evening you were sleeping You were dreaming I should guess

Do not touch me do not hold me

You cried it was useless

And implied to me through wild eyes Those things you can't confess

Emma sadly I must leave thee

As my true love waits alone

On the porch step in the moonlight

B A

She looks out and through the cold

G C

If I kiss you I must kill you You told me in gentle tones

My true love in the snow

Her body lay beaten there And covered in your clothes

And I'm walking down the road

A Em

I'm walking down the road

Am C

I'm walking down the road
