99 Red Balloons Chords

   
E              F#m
You and I in a little toy shop
A                             B7 
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got 
E                   F#m
Set them free at the break of dawn 
A               B7
Til one by one, they were gone 
E                 F#m
Back at base bugs in the software 
A                 B7
Flash the message, something's out there 
E              F#m
Floating in the summer sky 
A               B7
99 red balloons go by 

99 red balloons 
Floating in the summer sky 
Panic bells it's red alert 
There's something here from somewhere else 
The war machine springs to life 
Opens up one eager eye 
Focusing it on the sky 
Where 99 red balloons go by 

99 Decision street 
99 ministers meet 
To worry, worry, super scurry 
Call the troops out in a hurry 
This is what we've waited for 
This is it boys, this is war 
The president is on the line 
As 99 red balloons go by 

99 knights of the air 
Ride super high tech jet fighters 
Everyone's a super hero 
Everyone's a Captain Kirk 
With orders to identify 
To clarify, and classify 
Scramble in the summer sky 
99 red balloons go by 

99 dreams I have had 
In every one a red balloon 
It's all over and I'm standing pretty 
In this dust that was a city 
If I could find a souvenir 
Just to prove the world was here 
And here is a red balloon 
Just to prove the world was here 
And here is a red balloon 
I think of you, and let it go
