[G] I was [C] driving across the [G] burning desert _ _ [Bb] when I spotted [Eb] six jet [Bb] planes
_ Leaving [Am] six white _ _ [Bm] vapor trails across [C] the [G] bleak [C] terrain _ _ _
It was the hexagram of the [Em] heavens, _ it [Bm] was the strings of my [Am] guitar _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [F] _
Amelia, _ it was [Bb] just a false _ [F] alarm
_ [Bb] [F] The _ _

_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [C] drone of flying [G] _
engines _ [Bb] is a [Eb] song so wild [Bb] and blue
It [F] _ scrambles time _ _ [G] and seasons if [Em] it gets [G] through [C] to you _ _
Then _ your life _ becomes [Em] a _ travelogue _ _ [Bm] _
of picture _ [Am] postcard charms
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [F] _
Oh Amelia, _ it was [Bb] just a _ _ false [F] alarm

_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ will tell you [G] where they've gone
_ [Bb] They'll [Eb] tell you where to [Bb] go
But till you [F] get there _ yourself, [G] _ _ _
you'll never really _ [C] know _ _
_ _ _ Where some have found [Em] their paradise, _ [A] _ [Bm] _
others just come [Am] to _ harm
_ _ _ _ [C] Oh _ [F] _
Amelia, _ [Bb] it was just a false [F] alarm
_ I _ _ _

_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [C] wish that he was [G] here tonight
It's [Bb] _ [Eb] so hard to [Bb] obey his [C] sad request _ of [Bm] me to [G] kindly stay [C] away _ _ _
_ _ _ _ So this is how I [Em] hide the hurt [Bm] as the road _ [Am] leads, cursed in charm
_ _ [G] I tell [F]
Amelia, _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ it was just a false [F] alarm
_ _ A _ _ _ [C] _ [Dm] _ [G] _ _ _

_ [G] _ ghost [C] of _ _ [G]
aviation, _ she [Bb] was swallowed [Eb] _
by [Bb] the sky _ [C] or by [F] the sea
_ Like [G] me, _ she [Em] [G] had a dream [C] to fly _ _
_ _ Like _ _ _ Icarus [Em] _ ascending _ [Bm] on _ _ beautiful _ [Am] foolish _ _ arms
_ _ [G] _ [F] Oh Amelia, _ _ _ [Bb] it was just a false [F] alarm
[Bb] _ [F] _ Maybe _

_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [C] I've never [G] really loved
[C] _ [Bb] _ I [Eb] guess that [Bb] is the truth
I've [C] spent [Am] my whole [F] life [G] in clouds at icy _ [C] altitude _ _ _
And _ _ looking down on [Em] _ everything, _ _ [Bm] I crashed into [Am] his _ arms _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _
Amelia, it [Bb] was just a false alarm
[F] _ [Bb] I _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
pulled [C] into the Cactus [G] Tree _ Motel _ [Bb] to [Eb] shower [Bb] off the dust
[C] And I [F] slept on the _ [G] strange pillows of my _ [C] _ _ wanderlust
_ I _ dreamed of _ _ _ [Em] _
_ 747s [Bm] over _ _ geometric _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ barns
_ _ [C] _ _ [F] Dreams, _ Amelia, _ [Bb] _ dreams and [F] false alarms _ _ _ _ _ _
