[Verse 1]

D               G
Amelia, Amelia Earhart, 
D                          G
after her plane was torn apart 
     A                     G
and bursting through the trees
       D
She remembered picking lemons 
      G
with William Randolph Hearst 
     D                
and how a spinning plane propeller 
        G             
turned liquid in the sun

[Chorus]

    A               G
And as the cockpit burned, 
 A                     G
her hair filled with sparks, 
      A                G
but when the glass exploded in, 
A                G
everything went dark.

[Verse 2]
D               G
Amelia, Amelia Earhart, 
D                          G
after her plane was torn apart 
     A                     G
and bursting through the trees
       D  
She remembered sipping consomme' 
      G
with William Howard Taft 
D
and a boy with perfect skin 
      G
who smelled like mustard gas

[Chorus]

    A               G
And as the cockpit burned, 
     A                  G
she couldn't help but smile, 
   A                 G
recalling a dancing bear 
  A               G
she'd seen as a child
