Chord/Tab song: Blood Red Balloon

[Intro]
Em G x2

[Verse]
[Em]Blow the electric candle out

Let yourself slip away a while
[G]Into the phosphorescent blue
That's swimming through the t[B]ubes in you
[C]'Cuz you are made of water

Slowly synchronising with the moon
[G]That rises from the sea in front y[B]ou

[Chorus]
Like a blood red [C]balloon
Like a blood red b[Em]alloon

[Verse]
[Em]Wandering naked though the street

Forewarning everyone you meet
You [G]hold their fortune in your hand
See heaven in a grain of sa[B]nd
Con[C]verse with the Spiritual Sun

On Primrose Hill, NW1
Emer[G]ging ghostly from the morning d[B]ew

[Chorus]
Like a blood red [C]balloon
Like a blood red [Em]balloon
Like a blood red [C]balloon
Like a blood red [Em]balloon

[A]Don't close your eyes

You can't fight it

Don't close your eyes

You can't hide from it
[F#m]Open your eyes

You can't fight it
Don't [B]close your eyes

You can't fight it
[A]Don't close your eyes[A6][A]

You can't fight it
[A]Don't close your eyes[A6][A]

You can't hide from it
[F#m]Open your eyes[F#sus4][F#m]

You can't fight it
Don'[B]t close your eyes[B6][B]

[Lead break]
A\\\\\\\\E\\\\\\\\G\\\\\\\A B\\\\\\\G Em\\\\\\\\G\\\\\\\\\\

[verse]
[Em]I look into your staring eyes

And understand our future lies
With the [G]destined demise of man
A mushroom cloud following [B]an
Exp[C]losion filmed in surround sound

Sending deep tremors through the ground
Obsc[G]uring the innocent sky from v[B]iew

[Chorus]
Like a blood red [C]balloon
Like a blood red [Em]balloon
Like a blood red [C]balloon
Like a blood red [Em]balloon
Like a blood[D]

[G](Don't close your eyes)

[Em/G](Don't close your eyes)
[G](Don't close your eyes)
[F](Don't close your eyes)
[C](Don't close your eyes)
