Hot Air Balloon Uke tab by Owl City

C                 F
We wrote a prelude, for our own fairy tale 
               C             F     
And bought a parachute, at a church rummage sale 
           C                Am       F
And with a mean sewing machine, and miles of thread 
            C            Am     F        G   
We sewed the day above L. A. in navy and red. 
           C                        F 
We roamed a racetrack, through your mom's kitchen chairs 
              C                        F
And fought the shadows back, down your dark basement stairs. 
        C                Am        F
I lit a match and let it catch, to light up the room 
        C             Am             F     G          C
And you yelled as we beheld, an old maroon hot air balloon.  

C                  G        F
I'll be out of my mind, and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon 
C        G         F                Dm             C 
So let's spend the afternoon, in a cold hot air balloon 
C                   G          F                     
Leave your jacket behind, lean out and touch the tree tops 
      C
over town 
C       G       F                    G                  C 
I can't wait to kiss the ground, wherever we touch back down. 


C                              F
We drank the great lakes, like cold lemonade 
                C          F                    G
And both got stomach aches, sprawled out in the shade. 
         C                    Am                          F
Swore to death you held your breath, and I tried not to yawn. 

           C                   Am              F
You made my frown turn upside down, and now my worries are 
 G    C
gone. 



C                  G        F
I'll be out of my mind, and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon 
C        G         F                Dm             C 
So let's spend the afternoon, in a cold hot air balloon 
C                   G          F                     
Leave your jacket behind, lean out and touch the tree tops 
      C
over town 
C       G       F                    G                  C 
I can't wait to kiss the ground, wherever we touch back down.

C        G         F                Dm             C
