D                          G 
I'm not a boy, I'm a big, fat balloon 
                 D                        
Flapping in the wind, Floating over the treetops 
       G                                  A 
On a broken string, I've never been tied down 
       G 
To anything  

             D 
Because I'm free 
      G 
I suppose 
       D  
I can go 
                G  
Where I want to go 

   D                      G 
I drift carelessly, On a summer breeze 
                     D 
I bounce above the trees, I try to be cheerful 
           G                              A 
But I can feel myself, Deflating all the time 
           G 
Up in the sky. 


Chorus 
         D        G 
Because I'm a balloon  
 D            G 
On a broken string 
 D         G 
I'm not attached to 
    D          G 
Anyone or anything 
    A 
Anymore 
Oh-oh-oh 
Schooby-doo 
Tra-la-la 


     D                        G 
I'm sad and alone, But you'd never know 
              D 
It to look at me, I look ever so happy 
         G                                 A 
Up here by myself, But I wish sometimes I looked 
           G 
The way I felt 


Chorus 
Because I'm a balloon  
On a broken string 
I'm don't belong to  
Anyone or anything 
Anymore 


OUTRO x4 
       D 
And I know I look shiny and bouncy 
        G 
But I'm all empty inside 
                 D 
And I worry that if I was to just burst suddenly 
      G 
That nobody would even notice me
