G               C
Threw away your greatest hits
    D                  C
You left them here the day you split
G               C
Bass guitar and shag CD 
     D                   C
Well they dont mean that much to me right now
                      Am
I'm goin through your things
       C
These days
         Am
I'm changin' all my strings


Chorus
                      G       Em
Gonna write you a letter
                 Bm           C
Gonna write you a book
                 G            Em
Wanna see your reaction
                D
Wanna see how it looks
                   Am                       C
From way upon your cloud, you've been hiding out
        Am
Are you getting somewhere
       C
Or did you get lost in Amsterdam

Verse 2
G                C
You wont get too far from me
D              C
Believing everything you read
    G             C                 D            C
You wasted in the great unknown and I am finally ready to dispose
                    Am
Of all your village clothes
     C
Your drugs
          Am
Every secret code


Chorus

Verse 3

From your red balloon you were

A super-high tech jet fighter

Floating over planet earth come back down here I'll show you where it hurt

Take this bitter pill

It isnt easy to swallow
