We wrote a prelude to our own fairy tale 
and bought a parachute at a church rummage sale 

and with a mean sewing machine and miles of thread 
we sewed the day above L.A. in navy and red 
we roamed a racetrack through your mom's kitchen chairs 
and fought the shadows back down your dark basement stairs 
I lit a match then let it catch to light up the room 
and then you yelled as we beheld an old maroon hot air balloon 

C                G 
I'll be out of my mind 
         Am          F 
and you'll be out of ideas pretty soon 
     C    G        Am              F 
so let's spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon 
C                 G 
leave your jacket behind 
      Am                F 
lean out and touch the tree tops over town 
     C    G       Am              F 
I can't wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down

We drank the great lakes like cold lemonade 
and both got stomach aches  sprawled out in the shade 
swore 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 

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 tree tops over town 
I can't wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down
