GI was driving across the burning desert
BbWhen I spotted six jet planes
C Bm G G4 G Leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain
C GIt was the hexagram of the heavens
Bm Am Git was the strings of my guitar
F Bb FAmelia it was just a false alarm
F-G--G C-F Bb
GThe drone of flying engines
BbIs a song so wild and blue
C Bm G G4 GIt scrambles time and seasons if it gets thru to you
C GThen your life becomes a travelogue
Bm Am GOf picture post card charms
F Bb FAmelia it was just a false alarm
F-G--G C-F Bb
GPeople will tell you where they've gone
BbThey'll tell you where to go
C Bm G G4 GBut till you get there yourself you never really know
C GWhere some have found their paradise
Bm Am GOther's just come to harm
F Bb FOh, Amelia it was just a false alarm
F-G--G C-F Bb
GI wish that he was here tonight
BbIt's so hard to obey
C Bm G G4 GHis sad request of me to kindly stay away
C GSo this is how I hide the hurt
Bm Am GAs the road leads cursed and charmed
F Bb FI tell Amelia it was just a false alarm
F-G--G C-F Bb
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 ------------------------------- 24.07.2013 Lublin, Poland
