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

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
