Alligator Sky chords by Owl City

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

So, here’re the chords I use:

G  D  A  Bm  E  B  C#m
E|--3----5----5----2----0----2----4---|
A|--5----5----7----2----2----2----4---|
D|--5----7----7----4----2----3----6---|
G|--4----7----6----4----1----3----6---|
B|--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.

Where was I when the rockets came to life
  Bm      G       D    A

Where ecstasy becomes cavalier
  G      D
My imagination’s taking me away

I’m scared to death that I’ll never be afraid

Roller coaster through the atmosphere

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

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

G      D       A
Where was I when the rockets came to life
  Bm      G       D    A
And carried you away into the alligator sky

I’m never lettin’ go

You can end on E or let B 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!
