99 Red Balloons by Nina
99 Red Balloons
Intro/ Vs- E F#m A B
E F#m
You and I in a little toy shop,
A B
buy a bag of balloons with the money we’ve got
E F#m
Set them free at the break of dawn,
A B
till one by one they were gone
Back at base, faxing the software,
flash the message something’s out there
Floating in the summer sky,
99 red balloons go by…
Bass intro
99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bell, its red alert there’s something here from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life, opens up one’s eager eyes
Focusing in on the sky, 99 red balloons go by…
99 decisions free, 99 may misters me
To worry worry super surrey, call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we’ve waited for, this is it boys this war
The president is on the line, cause 99 red balloons go by
99 lights up the air, with super high tech jet fighters
Everyone’s a superhero, everyone’s with captain Kirk
With orders to identify, to clarify and classify
There’s a tremble in the summer’s sky, 99 red balloons go by
99 red balloons go by…
99 dreams I have heard, and everyone a red balloon
It’s all over and I’m standing pretty, in this dusted worldless city
If I can find a souvenir, just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon, I’ll think of you and let it go ~fade out~

((Same chords throughout))
99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
As 99 red balloons go by.
99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call out the troops now in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by.
IV (Do the same chords)
99 Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich fuer schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer haette das gedacht
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons
99 dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In the dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenier
Just to prove the world was here...
And here it is, a red balloon
I think of you and let it go.
