Verse:
Am C
Elevator straight into my skull
Am C
the escalator rises as it falls
G F
i swear our jet is crashing in my mind
G Em?
you can hold on but i wouldn't waste your time
Chorus:
F Am
Farewell my black balloon
F F7M?
Farewell my black balloon
Am C
I've stood in a thousand street scenes
Am C
just around the corner from you
G F
on the edge of a dream that you have
G Em?
has anybody ever told you, it's not coming true?
F Am
Farewell my black balloon
F A
Farewell my black balloon
A G D A
Ah ah ah ah - ah ah ah ah - ah ah ah ah ah - ah ah ah ah x2
