VERSE 1:
Em7 **                                   D (w/ riff A, see note)
There's trouble in the friendly skies tonight
Em7 **                                           D (w/ riff A)
Love can never last when you're flying up this high
Em7 **                                         D
You took the lead, but I'm not ready to come down
Em7 *
So so long baby, I'll see you someday
            A (with riff B, see note)
When we're both on the ground

                 Em7 *                                   D (w/ riff A)
And yeah you're gone like the wind and it don't even matter --
    Em7 *                                     D (w/ riff A)
I'd fly above it all and watch the world shatter
          G                                          D (w/ riff A)
We had a sky-dive love affair, doomed from the very start
                    Em7 *                           A (with riff B)
So you can throw my love to the wind I'll just flo--oat back to the ground

With my Parachute Hea--rt

Bm *                               Daug
There's trouble in my lonely, old balloon
D *                                       E7 (see variants to use)
I let you jump, but maybe you jumped too soon
G                                 D (w/ riff A)
It's too late for me to turn back now
   Em                   Em7 *
So goodbye baby, 'cause I'm not ready
A (w/ riff B)
To follow you down
