Alligator Sky chords by Owl City

Chords with lyrics

=================================
 Song: Alligator Sky
 Artist: Owl City
=================================

So, here’re the chords I use:

G+G  D MajorD  A augmentedA  B minorBm  E MajorE  BB  C# minorC#m
E MajorE|--3----5----5----2----0----2----4---|
A augmentedA|--5----5----7----2----2----2----4---|
D MajorD|--5----7----7----4----2----3----6---|
G+G|--4----7----6----4----1----3----6---|
BB|--3----7----5----3----0----3----5---|
e|--3----5----5----2----0----2----4---|

I personally like the feel of bar chords because they make me feel cool. :P But
not everyone has really long fingers like me, so it may not be as easy for you
(not to mention, it makes switching chords bundles harder). Go ahead and play open
chords if you want ’cause honestly, it makes no difference.

You can just play the ¨regular¨ (Open) chords like this:

G: 3-2-0-0-3-3-|
D: x-x-0-2-3-2-|
A: x-0-2-2-2-0-|

Yeah, much easier.

ANYWAY... Let’s do this thang.

G+G      D MajorD       A augmentedA
Where was I when the rockets came to life
  B minorBm      G+G       D MajorD    A augmentedA
And carried you away into the alligator sky
   G+G         D MajorD        A augmentedA
Even though I’ll never know what’s up ahead
  B minorBm      G+G    D MajorD       A augmentedA
I’m never lettin’ go, I’m never lettin’ go

G+G                D MajorD
Remember to breathe, ’cause it’ll take your breath away
     A augmentedA         B minorBm
When the engines cough and you blast off
G+G            D MajorD       A augmentedA
Ignite the night with a firecracker flash

G+G              D MajorD
Remember to live, ’cause you’re gonna be thrilled to death
     A augmentedA           B minorBm
When the stars collide and your eyes grow wide
G+G          D MajorD         A augmentedA
Take it in with your breath against the glass

G+G               D MajorD
Remember to dream, ’cause it’s gonna be a starry night
   A augmentedA       B minorBm
Over every town as you look down
G+G           D MajorD       A augmentedA
So harmonize with the singing satellites

G+G               D MajorD
Remember to scream, ’cause you’re gonna be lost for words
     A augmentedA           B minorBm
When the sparks erupt and they light you up
G+G          D MajorD          A augmentedA         B minorBm
Dip your toes in the galaxy, ’cause it’s yours to explore tonight

G+G      D MajorD       A augmentedA
Where was I when the rockets came to life
  B minorBm      G+G       D MajorD    A augmentedA
And carried you away into the alligator sky (To the alligator sky)
   G+G         D MajorD        A augmentedA
Even though I’ll never know what’s up ahead
  B minorBm      G+G    D MajorD       A augmentedA
I’m never lettin’ go, I’m never lettin’ go

A augmentedA             B minorBm
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
  G+G        D MajorD
I’m drowning in this starry serenade
   A augmentedA        B minorBm
Where ecstasy becomes cavalier
  G+G      D MajorD
My imagination’s taking me away
A augmentedA        B minorBm
Reverie, whisper in my ear
  G+G             D MajorD
I’m scared to death that I’ll never be afraid
A augmentedA             B minorBm
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
  G+G       D MajorD
My imagination’s taking me away

G+G           D MajorD
 Let’s hear it for the universe
     A augmentedA          B minorBm
Where it never hurts, diving in head-first
G+G          D MajorD       A augmentedA
Take a taste of the melting Milky Way

G+G                D MajorD
And remember to laugh, ’cause you’re livin’ in a crazy world
       A augmentedA           B minorBm
Where you’ll never guess what could happen next
G+G           D MajorD       A augmentedA         B minorBm
Give the outer limits my regards as you float to fly away

G+G      D MajorD       A augmentedA
Where was I when the rockets came to life
  B minorBm      G+G       D MajorD    A augmentedA
And carried you away into the alligator sky
   G+G         D MajorD        A augmentedA
Even though I’ll never know what’s up ahead
  B minorBm      G+G
I’m never lettin’ go
  D MajorD       A augmentedA
I’m never lettin’ go

[Pause]

[Key change time! :P]

A augmentedA      E MajorE       BB
Where was I when the rockets came to life
  C# minorC#m     A augmentedA       E MajorE    BB
And carried you away into the alligator sky
   A augmentedA         E MajorE        BB
Even though I’ll never know what’s up ahead
  C# minorC#m      A augmentedA
I’m never lettin’ go
  E MajorE       BB
I’m never lettin’ go

A augmentedA    E MajorE     BB   C# minorC#m
 In the alligator sky
A augmentedA    E MajorE     BB   C# minorC#m
 In the alligator sky

A augmentedA - E MajorE - BB - C# minorC#m

A augmentedA    E MajorE     BB
 In the alligator sky

You can end on E MajorE or let BB ring or whatever.
And BAM!!
That’s how I play it. Like I said before, this song’s not guitar based, so if you think
you’d like to replace one of these chords with something you think sounds better, go
ahead! Give it your own 1-2-punch flavor!

Well, have fun playing and singing along. Keep rocking!
