Waiting For Amelia chords by Gretchen Peters

Gretchen Peters - Waiting For Amelia






CAPO: 2nd Fret



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

CHORUS:
                     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


CHORUS:
                     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


CHORUS:
                  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


OUTRO:

     C                F
True north is hard to find
      C                      F
These long, long nights play tricks upon the mind
