Bridges and balloons

G C (X 2)

G
We sailed away on a winter's day
C
With fate as malleable as clay
G
But ships are fallible I say
C
And the nautical like all things fades

G
And I do recall our caravel
C
A little wicker beetle shell
G
With four fine masts and lateen sails
C
Its bearings on Cair Paravel

Am C
Oh my love
G
Oh it was a funny little thing
Am C G C G C
To be the ones to have seen

G
The sight of bridges and balloons
C
Makes calm canaries irritable
G
And they caw and claw all afternoon
C
Catenaries and dirigibles
G
Brace and buoy the living room
C
A loom of metals, warp, woof, wimble
G
And a thimble's worth of milky moon
C
Can be hearts larger than a thimble

Am C
Oh my love
G
Oh it was a funny little thing
Am C G
To be the ones to have seen

Am C
Oh my love
G
Oh it was a funny little thing
Am C G C G C G C G \
It was a funny, funny little thing
