Tabbed by: Macheeoo

Tuning: Standard
***NOTE: I'm not 100% sure that the B7 chord is the correct chord. I know it
has a B note in it and it sounded closer than Em, B, or G. If you think you've
figured it out let me know! Also, play the song in a polka fashion, waltzy if
you will in a 3/4 time signature I believe (never took music theory...)
Intro:
Am E Am E x4
VERSE:
Am E Am E Am E Am E Am C/B (Walk Up)
There's a pub on the South side of town
C G Dm E Am
Time stands still while there's still wine around
Am E Am E Am E Am C/B
She's the one in the calico
C G Dm E Am
The one who's always and never alone
CHORUS:

Oooh - Did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away
E
Oooh - Does she even know
E E
She's the girl with the red balloon
REPEAT INTRO:
VERSE:
Am E Am E Am E Am C/B
Keep her glass full of cheap champagne
C G Dm E Am
She will tell of a man with no name
Am E Am E Am E Am C/B
Smoke and mirrors have done her in
C G Dm E Am
She's in love and she won't be again
CHORUS:
F C B7
Oooh - Did she let him go or did the four winds blow him away

Oooh - Does she even know

She's the girl with the red balloon

Floating away
