[Intro]
F G G C F Bb
[Verse]
G
I was driving across the burning desert
Bb
When I spotted six jet planes
C Bm G G4 G
Leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain
C G
It was the hexagram of the heavens
Bm Am G
it was the strings of my guitar
F Bb F
Amelia it was just a false alarm
[Instrumental]
F G G C F Bb
[Verse]
G
The drone of flying engines
Bb
Is a song so wild and blue
C Bm G G4 G
It scrambles time and seasons if it gets thru to you
C G
Then your life becomes a travelogue
Bm Am G
Of picture post card charms
F Bb F
Amelia it was just a false alarm
[Instrumental]
F G G C F Bb
[Verse]
G
People will tell you where they've gone
Bb
They'll tell you where to go
C Bm G G4 G
But till you get there yourself you never really know
C G
Where some have found their paradise
Bm Am G
Other's just come to harm
F Bb F
Oh, Amelia it was just a false alarm
[Instrumental]
F G G C F Bb
[Verse]
G
I wish that he was here tonight
Bb
It's so hard to obey
C Bm G G4 G
His sad request of me to kindly stay away
C G
So this is how I hide the hurt
Bm Am G
As the road leads cursed and charmed
F Bb F
I tell Amelia it was just a false alarm
[Instrumental]
F G G C F Bb
[Verse]
A ghost of aviation
She was swallowed by the sky
Or by the sea like me she had a dream to fly
Like Icarus ascending
On beautiful foolish arms
Amelia it was just a false alarm
Maybe I've never really loved
I guess that is the truth
I've spent my whole life in clouds at icy altitude
And looking down on everything
I crashed into his arms
Amelia it was just a false alarm
I pulled into the Cactus Tree Motel
To shower off the dust
And I slept on the strange pillows of my wanderlust
I dreamed of 747s
Over geometric farms
Dreams Amelia - dreams and false alarms
