Verse 1:

Bb Bbsus4 Bb    Bbsus4
He        stands
Bb       Bbsus4  F/A           Gm
Towering over    me  beside my bed
           C7/E   F/Eb
Losing his head
Bb   Bbsus4  Bb  Bbsus4
Tells        me
Bb     Bbsus4   Bb C   D
I must take him seriously
D       Gm      D     Eb        Bb     F/A    Gm
Droning on, the usual way, he's such a clever guy
Bb     Eb      Bb/F      F       Bb
Then I wonder, should I laugh or cry?

Verse 2:
Bb  Bbsus4 Bb    Bbsus4
He's       dressed
Bb     Bbsus4     F/A         Gm
In the striped pyjamas that I bought
              C7/E   F/Eb
Trousers too short
Bb   Bbsus4  Bb  Bbsus4
Gives        me
Bb     Bbsus4   Bb C D
Of his small philosophy
D       Gm      D     Eb        Bb   F/A    Gm
Carries on the way he does, and me I get so tired
Bb    Eb      Bb/F      F       Bb
And I wonder, should I laugh or cry?


Chorus:
Eb         Cm         F      Bb
 High and mighty his banner flies
Eb         F7           Dm
 A fool's pride in his eyes
Eb         Cm           Gm/D    D        Gm        Eb/Bb  Bb
 Standing there on his toes to grow in size (All I see    is...)
Eb      Cm       F       Bb
 All I see is a big balloon
Eb        F7          Dm
 Halfway up to the moon
Eb             Cm        Gm/D      D          Gm  Gm/F
 He's wrapped up in the warm and safe cocoon
C7/E          Bb/F
Of an eternal lie
F            F7       Bb
So should I laugh or cry?


Verse 3:
Bb      Bbsus4  Bb   Bbsus4
Strange         how
Bb      Bbsus4 F/A             Gm
Dangerously indifferent I have grown
          C7/E   F/Eb
Cold as a stone
Bb  Bbsus4  Bb   Bbsus4
No          more
Bb         Bbsus4    Bb   C D
Pain where there was pain before
D     Gm       D      Eb    Bb      F/A       Gm
 Far away he rambles on, I feel my throat go dry
Bb    Eb       Bb/F      F       Bb
And I wonder, should I laugh or cry?


Chorus:
Eb         Cm         F      Bb
 High and mighty his banner flies
Eb         F7           Dm
 A fool's pride in his eyes
Eb         Cm           Gm/D    D        Gm        Eb/Bb  Bb
 Standing there on his toes to grow in size (All I see    is...)
Eb      Cm       F       Bb
 All I see is a big balloon
Eb        F7          Dm
 Halfway up to the moon
Eb             Cm        Gm/D      D          Gm  Gm/F
 He's wrapped up in the warm and safe cocoon
C7/E          Bb/F
Of an eternal lie
F            F7      Bb
So should I laugh or cry?
