Verse 2

same as 1st verse)

We drank the Great Lakes

Like cold lemonade

And both got stomach aches

Sprawled out in the shade

So bored to death you held your breath

And I tried not to yawn

You made my frown turn upside down

And now my worries are gone

Chorus

same as original chorus)

I'll be out of my mind

And you'll be out of ideas

Pretty soon

So let's spend

The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon

Leave your jacket behind

Lean out and touch the treetops over town

I can't wait

To kiss the ground

Wherever we touch back down

No Chord (2x)

C G Am F

I'll be out of my mind

And you'll be out of ideas

Pretty soon

So let's spend

The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon

Leave your jacket behind

Lean out and touch the treetops over town

I can't wait

To kiss the ground

Wherever we touch back down

C G Am F
