CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G Bm C Am
Your eyes would [G]shine, Amelia
And I [Bm]mistook it for love
When you [C]asked me to go[Am]
As your [G]celestial navigator
We would [Bm]round the earth together
I would [C]work the radio[Am]
Oh, but A[D]melia all those [Em]miles were just a [C]sum
You were [D]living on a [Em]runway, what [C]were you running from?
But I [G]loved you open-hearted
And I [Bm]held your hand at night
High a[C]bove the Pacific Sea[Am]
Still, it's like [G]you were flying solo
And I was [Bm]only standing by
On your [C]flight of fancy[Am]
Never looked [D]back 'til we were [Em]running out of [C]fuel
We were [D]running out of [Em]land, I was [C]running out of you
CHORUS:
[Em]Oh, Amelia,[C] but don't I feel like a clown
Ohh, [G]you went down in history
Well, [D]me, I just went down
Oh oh oh, [Em]sweet Amelia,[C] you will never be found
Didn't [G]even know your own heart
Hey, but [D]it don't matter now, hm[G]mmm
Your sustenance was fame and
You were [Bm]starving for a thrill
Not a[C]fraid of a thing[Am]
Couldn't you've [G]wished upon a rainbow
Just like [Bm]everybody else?
But you had to [C]wish on lightning[Am]
Ohh, and [D]I was just a [Em]pawn in your ad[C]venture
Oh, and [D]I was just a [Em]casualty of [C]a stubborn will
CHORUS:
[Em]Oh, Amelia, [C]but don't I feel like a clown
Ohh, [G]you went down in history
Well, [D]me, I just went down
Oh oh oh, [Em]sweet Amelia,[C] you will never be found
Didn't [G]even know your own heart
Hey, but [D]it don't matter now
The more I [G]think about it now
It's only [Bm]up above the clouds
That our [C]love was ever real[Am]
And as the [G]mist grew thicker
At the [Bm]static's eerie silence
My [C]heart stood still[Am]
Oh, and the [D]last thing that you [Em]said was, you were [C]sorry
I [D]did it for [Em]love, you [C]did it for glory
CHORUS:
[Em]Oh, Amelia,[C] but don't I feel like a clown
Ohh, [G]you went down in history
Well, [D]me, I just went down
Oh oh oh, [Em]sweet Amelia,[C] you will never be found
Didn't [G]even know your own heart
Hey, but [D]it don't matter now, hm[C]mmm[G]m
