G Just when I thought I hadn't seen a thing, you went and promised me we'd float D7 Promenade through all the little corners of the world that no one knows G Climb Mount Everest, build ourselves a terrace, overlooking Isle of White D7 But suddenly the skies are darkening, the clouds are rolling in I'm G realizing all the while [Chorus] C I've been strung along and G carried by a lead balloon D7 Oh but how could I have G ever left the ground C When the reason I've been struggling G pulling my weight is you D7 G You're my love, you're my lead balloon [Verse 2] G Just when I thought I'm figuring it out, D7 I've sorted through the doubt you caused I start dreaming of rooms without a ceiling, G buildings towering applause If only we could drift as though we were D7 filled with helium, light as feathers We would never come undone, G cause darlin we'd be tethered [Chorus] C I've been strung along and carried by a G lead balloon D7 G Oh but how could I have ever left the ground C When the reason I've been struggling G pulling my weight is you D7 You're my love, you're my lead G balloon
