Hot Air Balloon Chords

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

**CHORUS** Am I'll be out of my mind, and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon Am So let's spend the afternoon, in a cold hot air balloon Am Leave your jacket behind, lean out and touch the tree tops over town Am I can't wait to kiss the ground, wherever we touch back down. **VERSE 2** F We drank the great lakes, like cold lemonade F And both got stomach aches, sprawled out in the shade. F Swore to death you held your breath, and I tried not to yawn. F You made my frown turn upside down, and now my worries are gone. **CHORUS** Am I'll be out of my mind, and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon Am So let's spend the afternoon, in a cold hot air balloon. Am Leave your jacket behind, lean out and touch the tree tops over town. Am I can't wait to kiss the ground, wherever we touch back down. Am I'll be out of my mind, and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon Am So let's spend the afternoon, in a cold hot air balloon. Am Leave your jacket behind, lean out and touch the treetops over town. Am I can't wait to kiss the ground, wherever we touch back down.
