[Verse]
EAn airship out o-’er the ocE7ean, just a Aspeck against the sky,
BAmelia Earhart flying that sad dEay;
EWith her partner, Captain NE7oonan, on the sAecond of July
Her plaBne fell in the ocean, far Eaway.
[Chorus]
There's a Abeautiful, bAadd9eautiful fiEeld
Far away in a land that is fBairB7.
Happy Elandings to yE7ou, Amelia EAarhart
FarewBell, first B7lady of the aEir.
[Verse]
EShe radioed position and shE7e said that Aall was well,
BAlthough the fuel within the tanEks was low.
EBut they'd land on Howland E7Island to reAfuel her monoplane,
BThen on their trip around the woErld they'd go.
[Chorus]
There's a Abeautiful, bAadd9eautiful fiEeld
Far away in a land that is fBairB7.
Happy Elandings to yE7ou, Amelia EAarhart
FarewBell, first B7lady of the aEir.
[Verse]
EWell, a half an hour later E7an SOS was hAeard,
BThe signal weak, but still her vEoice was brave.
EOh, in shark-infeste-hed waE7ters her plane Awent down that night
BIn the blue Pacific to a watery Egrave.
[Chorus]
There's a Abeautiful, bAadd9eautiful fiEeld
Far away in a land that is fBairB7.
Happy Elandings to yE7ou, Amelia EAarhart
FarewBell, first B7lady of the aEir.
[Verse]
EWell, now you have heard my E7story of thAat awful tragedy,
BWe pray that she might fly home Esafe again.
EOh, in years to come tho-huE7gh others blaze Aa trail across the sea,
BWe'll ne'er forget Amelia and heEr plane.
[Chorus]
There's a Abeautiful, bAadd9eautiful fiEeld
Far away in a land that is fBairB7.
Happy Elandings to yE7ou, Amelia EAarhart
FarewBell, first B7lady of the  Ea-iAr.Am9  E
