G C G
I bought a balloon for twenty pence
C D G
When I was at the fair
C Am
I dropped it by mistake
D
And it went right into the air
C Am
I missed it oh so terribly
D
When up and up it flew
G C
And then I had a horrible thought
D G
it probably missed me too.
C Am
But one thing made me happy
D
As it floated in the sky
G C
It must have had a lovely view
D D7 G
'Cos it was up so high.
