Oh, I'm dying [Bm] in a little toy shop
[D] Buy a bag of [E] balloons with the money we [A] got
Set them [Bm] free at break of [D] dawn
One by one, [E] they are gone
[A]
Back at [Bm] Facebook's in the [D] software
Flash the [E] message, so things out [A] there
Burning in [Bm] the summer sky
[D] Ninety [C#m]-nine red balloons [A] go by
Ninety-nine red [D] balloons floating [E] in the summer [A] sky
Oh, when it [Bm] lights it's red [D] alert
Something [E] ain't right somewhere [A] else
One by [Bm] scene it's green [D] light
Folks [E] are walking through
[A] I hope [Bm] to see it on the [D] sky
Ninety-nine [A] red balloons go by
[Bm]
[E] [A] [D]
[A] Ninety [Bm]-nine decisions [D] free
Ninety [E]-nine endless [A] degrees
Worry, [Bm] worry, super [D] scary
Cold-hearted, [E] too strict and a [A] little close
This is [Bm] what we're waiting [D] for
This is [E] it, boys, this is [A] it
The president [Bm]
is on the [D] line
Ninety [E]-nine red [A] balloons go by
[D]

[A] Ninety [D]-nine red balloons floating [E] in the summer [A] sky
[D] Ninety-nine red balloons floating [E] in the summer [A] sky
Ninety-nine [Bm] nights of [D] jail
Friday, [E] super, get by
[A] [D] Everyone's a superhero
[E] Everyone's a hassle [A] bar
But all that you [Bm]
identify
[D] To clarify, [E] classify
[A] Scrambling [Bm] in the summer [D] sky
Ninety [E]-nine red balloons [A] go by
[D]
Ninety [F#]-nine red balloons [A] go [Bm] by
Noisy, [C#m] noisy, no follow [A]-through
[C#]
[D] Ninety [E]-nine red balloons [A] go by
[F#]
[D] Ninety [C#m]-nine [A] red balloons
[G#]
[C#] [A] Ninety-nine [Bm] dreams I have
[D] [E] [A] But so far [Bm] I'm standing [D] pretty
I'll just [E] stand here as a city
[A] If I could find [Bm] a souvenir
[D]
Just to prove [E] the world is here
[A] Here it is, [Bm] the red balloon
[D] [E] [N]
