Amelia Lyrics & Tabs by Salter Cane
Amelia
guitar chords lyrics
There's a black ship in the harbor
It came the other day
It's got our names along the side
It's headin' right this way
And there's nowhere to run to
And we won't get away
And she's running through the hallway
And banging all the doors
Shaking all the windows
Jumping on the floor
But there's nowhere to run to
And we won't get away
And Amelia
You don't have to go
I know there's something wrong
And Amelia
You don't have to go
I know there's something wrong
And you gotta let it show
But I love you this way
Amelia, stay
And there's talking on the telephone
And pictures on TV
Words in all the papers
And they don't look right to me
They say a mighty storm's coming
And we know who's to blame
And she's running to the kitchen
And to the kitchen drawer
She's got a kitchen knife
And she's kneeling on the floor
"Gotta bleed my arm,
Take some pressure off my heart"
But Amelia
You don't have to go
I know there's something wrong
And you gotta let it show
But I love you this way
Amelia, stay
And there's a shadow on the hillside
It's dark and moving fast
Amelia, get inside now,
Let's wait until it's passed
I hear their talking
In my sleep
But she's running to the bedroom
And she's ripping off the sheets
She's leaning out the window
Shouting to the street
But Amelia,
It's not me we have to fear
Now she's running across the garden
I know that I'm too late
She's kicking at the hinges
Screaming at the gate
Gotta let the dogs out
Before they kill us all
But Amelia
You don't have to go
I know there's something wrong
And you gotta let it show
But I love you this way
Amelia, stay
And Amelia
You don't have to go
I know there's something wrong
And I gotta let it show
But I love you this way
Amelia, stay
Oh Amelia
You don't have to go
I know your love is strong
But you gotta let it show
'Cause I love you this way
Amelia, stay
