[Bb] [Bbm]
[Bb]
[Db]
[Db]
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
Almost fell into that hole in your life
You're not thinking about tomorrow
Cause you were the same as me
But on your [Ab] [Db] knees
A thousand other boys could never reach you
But after I've been gone
I saw the world spoon beneath you
[Bb] And scattered like ice from [Db] the spoon
That was your world
[Gb]
[Bbm] Shining down [Gb] on the world, [Db] telling you go
And angels [Gb] call out [Db] you [Bbm] there
And I [Ab] go on [Gb] as you get older
While you're gone
You [Db]
[Gb] [Db]
know the lies that others told you
And the love you never [Gb] knew
[Db]
All the things they never showed you
[Bbm] That swallowed the light from [Db] the sun
Inside [Ab] your [Db] world Yeah
[Bbm] Shining [Ab] down [Gb] on the world, telling you go
[Bbm] And angels [Ab] call [Gb] out you there
[Bbm] And I [Ab] go on [Gb] as you get older Always someone
[Db]
[Bbm] [Ab]
[Db] [Gb]
[Bbm] [Ab] [Db]
[Eb]
[Gb]
There's no time left for [Ab] losing
And you stand there crawling
[Bbm] Running down the road
[Ab] And angels call [Db] out you there
[Bbm] And I go [Ab] on [Db] as you get older Always [Ab] someone
[Bbm] Running [Ab] down [Db] the years
And the roads
[Bbm] And angels call [Db] out you there
And I go [Ab] on [Db] as you get older
[Ab] Always someone
[Db]
[Bb] I'll become
[Db] You became me
[Bb]
[Bbm]
