[Verse 1]
[Em]Oh, my big Balu, with my wine I pine for you
My days are shapeless [D]now
[Em]I'm something of a sacred cow
[D]But sunrise on those gum balls
bouncing around Manhattan

[Verse 2]
Saw [D]the Magi sleep on a subway train
And the start of an elegant pattern
You carried [Em]me over the threshold
You were the B the bang the binge

[Verse 3]
'Til [Em]I split for a tryst with a rust belt
girl with a Plantagenet fringe
And, oh, do [D]I miss you Balu
with your bookmark heart
And your bible [Em]of sign [D]of the tim[Em]es[D]
I'll dig you back up when they [Em]kill you
And hollow [D]your skull for my wine

[Verse 4]
Balu, [Em]Bal u,
[G]Balu[Em][C][Em][G][E][A]
[D]Balu, Balu, Balu, Balu

[Verse 5]
[Em]Oh,
my big Balu, I saw you walking on the moon
I didn't wind my [D]window [Em]down
I didn't wind my window down
But [D]forever, old man,
we're children of Pan

[Verse 6]
[D]Drones [Em]just don'[D]t understand
There's nothing amiss
that [Em]cannae be fixed
[D]By bottle of fire and a band
I'll never [Em]be whole
without you
[D][Em][D]

[Verse 7]
[Em]But I'll never grow [D]in your
[Em]shadow[D][Em]
Mec[D]cano, Mikado, m'laddo
[Em]If y[D]ou c[G]an[D]'t reach for t[A]he nex[D]t branch u[C]p,
I'll [Em]sing to [C]you[Em]
About the view
I'll sing [D]to you, Bal[Em]u

Balu, Balu
[Em]Balu[C], Ba[Em]lu, [D]Balu, Balu
[Em]I'll[C] sin[Em]g to you
about the [D]view, Balu
Balu, [Em]Balu, [C]Bal[Em]u[A][D]
Balu, Balu, Balu, [Em]Balu
