C
 I was walkin' up 6th Ave. when balloon man came right up to me
        
G
                                                            
D
 He was round and fat and spherical with the biggest grin I've ever seen
 
G
                                                        
C
 He bounced on up towards me but before we could be introduced
 
G
                                                
D
        
G
 He blew up very suddenly - I guess his name was probably Bruce

 CHORUS:

        
D
               
G
     
C
 And I laughed, like I always do
        
D
              
G
        
C
 And I cried, like I cried for you
      
C
       
G

G
  
D
  
F#m
 
G
 And balloon man blew up in my hands

C
 He spattered me with tomatoes, hummus, chickpeas, and some strips of skin
      
G
                                           
D
          
G
 So I made a right on 44th, but I washed my hands when I got in

 CHORUS:
         
D
              
G
      
C
 And it rained, like a slow divorce
         
D
              
G
      
C
 And I wished, I could ride a horse
      
C

 And balloon man blew up in my hands

 I was walkin' up 6th Ave. when balloon man blew up in my face

D
       
G
 There were loads of them on Bryant Park, so I didn't feel out of place
                                                                   
C
 There must have been a plague of them on the TV when I came home late
            
G
                                             
D
       
G
 They were guzzling marshmellows and then jumping off the Empire State

 CHORUS:
        
D
               
G
      
C
 And I laughed, like I always do

 And I cried, like I cried for you

 SOLO:  It's played on the top two strings, starting at xxxx87.
 I hear xxxx88 (
C
), xxxx1010 (
D
), xxxx1312 (
G7
), etc. in there, but the
 picking is too fast too accurately transcribe.  IMPROVISE!!!
