Hey there, Amelia Earhart
F Am Bb
Queen of all the skies
F Am Bb
When you gonna fly that plane of yours
F Am Bb
Back through time?
F Am Bb
With the timing of a comet
F Am Bb
You'll be back around
F Am Bb
We'll make bright light of it
F Am Bb
Like you never left the ground
F Am Bb
And I'll be waiting
F Am Bb
With my eyes on the clouds
F Am Bb
And I'll be waiting
F Am Bb
For you to come down
F Am Bb
I gave you a silver angel
F Am Bb
From this place in Amsterdam
F Am Bb
And the days they fly so quickly
F Am Bb
I can't hold them in my head
F Am Bb
And I'll be waiting

With my eyes on the clouds
F Am Bb
And I'll be waiting
F Am Bb
For you to come down

For you to come down

For you to come down

For you to come down

With my eyes on the clouds
F Am Bb
And I'll be waiting
F Am Bb
For you to come down

Why don't you come down?
