Intro: C  F  C  F 

     C                F 
True north is hard to find 
      C                      F 
These long, long nights play tricks upon the mind 
  G        C          F                Dm7 
I tried my best, but I'm lost I guess 
                   C               G 
What I thought was freedom was just aimlessness 


 
                     C     G-C 
Now I'm waiting for Amelia 
   Am               
To come in from the west 
                 Dm7   D7sus2-D7sus2-Dm7 
I'm waiting for Amelia 
        C               G 
And the light is fading fast 
          C     G-C 
Come on, Amelia 
         Am             
You have got this battle won 
              Dm7         G7         C        Am7        C   F 
You know that only angels fly into the sun         (lord) 


       C                F 
I have never learned to wait 
  C                  F 
I yearn for skies my heart can't navigate 
     G       C          F                Dm7 
It's been so long since I held someone 
                     C                  G 
And all my dreams of freedom, they don't keep me warm 


 
                     C     G-C 
Now I'm waiting for Amelia 
   Am               
To come in from the west 
                 Dm7   D7sus2-D7sus2-Dm7 
I'm waiting for Amelia 
        C               G 
And the light is fading fast 
          C     G-C 
Come on, Amelia 
         Am             
You have got this battle won 
              Dm7         G7         C  
You know that only angels fly into the sun  


Bridge: 
F 
Maybe the night was dark 
    C 
The sky was a starry dome 
F 
Maybe she lost her way 
   Dm7                   G7 
Or maybe she just didn't wanna come home 
 C     G-C               Dm7   D7sus2-D7sus2-Dm7   G  G*  G 
Amelia,    ohh, Amelia 



                  C     G-C 
Hmm, waiting for Amelia 
   Am               
To come in from the west 
                 Dm7   D7sus2-D7sus2-Dm7 
I'm waiting for Amelia 
        C               G 
And the light is fading fast 
          C     G-C 
Come on, Amelia 
         Am             
You have got this battle won 
              Dm7         G7         C        F 
You know that only angels fly into the sun
