Okkervil River - On a balcony

^GMisty, when you want to hit those ^Cwedding bells, you should ^Amstop yourself. You should ^Gsee yourself ^Cangry. ^GScreaming to the ceiling, girl, you ^Clook like hell. But when ^Amriding pills we get ^Cheavenly, on a ^Gbalcon^Cy. ^{Am C}

^GAnd baby's not a wreck on the ^Cwayside yet, although she ^Amstuck out her neck to see how ^Gdark she could ^Ctake it. ^GThe wind is wild. Why, the ^Cspray is wet! And a ^Amheart gets high as a ^Cheart can get,

on a ^Gbalcon^Cy, ^{Am C} high a^Gbove the ^Csea. ^{Am C}

^GYou are the woman, on some ^CFirefall. Do you ^Amwanna ball on that b^Grilliant ^Cbeach? So ^Ghard I thought I hear my future ^Cdaughter call through the ^Amstatic wall of a ^Cflashing dream.

And it's a ^Amwild, weaving ride to the ^Fsea. Little ^Gdemon, believe it ^Cfrom me. ^Am They say that you're living off ^Csomething-and-^Amsoda, some ^Cfine wine from 198^F3. They say you're a ^Gfant^Amas ^Cy.

^GClap, like a comma. Hear the ^Csentence sing. Hear the ^Amwhole world ring. Hey, it's ^Gbursting with ^Cbravery. And, ^GMisty, when it's whittled down to just ^Cone thing it ^Amamazes me, that ^Csimplicity.

I ^Gwandered through the supermarket like a ^Cslumming king. And the ^Amsun, it stings. Hell, I hadn't ^Gseen the sun for ^Cweeks. ^GWhen we finally walk away from ^Ceverything on our ^Amown four feet, I hear you ^Ccall my name

from a ^Gbalcon^Cy, ^{Am C} high a^Gbove the ^Csea. ^{Am C}

I hear you call from a ^Gbalcon^Cy. ^{Am C} And I like the way you say it. ^{G G G G G G G C}
