Owl City - Hot Air Balloon chords

Hey Everyone this is my first chords tabs.. Hope it works out.. =L

..This is for those of you who can't be bothered removing all the sharps yourselves:

CAPO FIRST FRET (because everyone loves capos! =D)

I think the intro/outro is C G Am F, not too sure.

Could never figure it out, =L

There is also fingerpicking: I'm not that pro =D

Also: The chords are based on the progression heard by the main guitar throughout the choruses
(if you listen closely, the bass also plays this progression in the verses).

Any questions feel free to email me at muffincakes@y7mail.com =)

- James. =L

C G Am F (4x)


VERSE 1
            C       G
We wrote a prelude
       Am             F
To our own fairy tale
             C         G
And bought a parachute
     Am             F
At a church rummage sale

           C           G
And with a mean sewing machine
    Am        F
And miles of thread
             C           G
We sewed the day above L.A.
    Am       F
In navy and red


VERSE 2
           C           G
We wound a race track
             Am             F
Through your mom's kitchen chairs
               C            G
And fought the shadows back
           Am            F
Down your dark basement stairs
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/o/owl-city/210313.html ]
        C                   G
I lit a match, then let it catch
   Am           F
To light up the room
             C               G
And then you yelled as we beheld
   Am         F
An old maroon hot air balloon


CHORUS
C                  G
I'll be out of my mind
    Am                F
And you'll be out of ideas
        C
Pretty soon
          G
So let's spend
    Am              F
The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon
C                    G
Leave your jacket behind
     Am                 F            C
Lean out and touch the treetops over town
        G
I can't wait
   Am
To kiss the ground
     F                C
Wherever we touch back down

C G Am F (4x)


VERSE 2  (same as 1st verse)
We drank the Great Lakes
Like cold lemonade
And both got stomach aches
Sprawled out in the shade
So bored to death you held your breath
And I tried not to yawn
You made my frown turn upside down
And now my worries are gone

CHORUS  (same as original chorus)
I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas
Pretty soon
So let's spend
The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon
Leave your jacket behind
Lean out and touch the treetops over town
I can't wait
To kiss the ground
Wherever we touch back down

No Chord (2x)

C G Am F (2x)

I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas
Pretty soon
So let's spend
The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon
Leave your jacket behind
Lean out and touch the treetops over town
I can't wait
To kiss the ground
Wherever we touch back down

C G Am F (to fade)
