[Intro 1]
[C][G][F][C][F]
[C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][Am]
[F]We wrote a prelude

[Verse 1]
[C]
[F]To our [Am]own fairy tale
[G]And bought a p[C]arachute[F]
At [C]a church rum[Am]mage sale[G]

[Verse 2]
And with [C]a mean sewing ma[F]chine
And [Am]miles of thread
[G]We sewed [C]the day [F]above L.A.
In navy [Am]and red
[G]We wound a race

[Verse 3]
[C]tra[F]ck
Through your mo[Am]m's kitchen chair[G]s
And fought [C]the shadows [F]back
Down [Am]your dark basement stair[G]s

[Verse 4]
I lit [C]a match, then let [F]it catch
To [Am]light up the room
[G]And then you[C] yelled as we behel[F]d
An [Am]old maroon hot air [G]balloon

[Verse 5]
[C]I'll be out of my [G]mind
And [Am]you'll be out [F]of ideas
Pretty soon
[C]So let's spe[G]nd
The [Am]afternoon [F]in a cold hot air balloon
[C]Leave your jacket be[G]hind
Lean [Am]out and touch
[F]the treetops over town
[C]I can't wai[G]t
To [Am]kiss the ground
[F]Wherever we touch back [C]down[G]

[Interlude 1]
[Am][F][C]
[G][Am][F][C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][Am]
[F]We drank the Great

[Verse 6]
[C]Lak[F]es
Like [Am]cold lemonade
[G]And both got sto[C]mach ach[F]es
Sprawled [Am]out in the shade
[G]So bored to death

[Verse 7]
[C]you held you[F]r breath
And I [Am]tried not to yawn
[G]You made my fro[C]wn turn
upside [F]down
And now my worries [Am]are g[G]one

[Verse 8]
[C]I'll be out of my min[G]d
And [Am]you'll be out [F]of ideas
Pretty soon
[C]So let's [G]spend
The [Am]afternoon [F]in a cold hot air balloon
[C]Leave your jacket be[G]hind
Lean [Am]out and touch
[F]the treetops over town
[C]I can't wai[G]t
To [Am]kiss the ground
[F]Wherever we touch back [C]down[G]
