Balloon Maker Chords

   
NOTES! -  

1. Played on CAPO 3
2. In the Chorus where he sings "We'll find them in time somewhere" The word 
"Time" is held while several chords are played. Just listen out for the chord 
changes and play what I've written below in time, It's kinda tricky to write them 
down on a held word if you know what I mean. Hope I havent confused any of you. =P
