Fiona Apple – Heavy Balloon (Guitar)

Fm                      Bbm
People like us, we play with a heavy balloon

Db                      Fm
We keep it up to keep the devil at bay, but it always falls way too soon

Fm                      Db
People like us, we play with a heavy balloon

D                       Bm

F#m
I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

F#m
I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

F#m
I've been sucking it in so long

F#m
That I'm busting at the seams

F#m
I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

D
I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

F#m
I've been sucking it in so long

Bm
That I'm busting at the seams

C
In the middle of the day, it's like the sun

F
But the Saharan one, it's staring me down

G
Forcing all forms of life inside of me

C
to retreat underground

C
It grows relentless like the teeth of a rat

F
It's just got to keep on gnawing at me

G
And it constricts like a boa on a hose, nothing flows

C
So the pressure grows instead of the seed

F#m                        Bm
People like us get so heavy and so lost sometimes

D                          Bm
So lost and so heavy that the bottom is the only place we can find

F#m                        Bm
You get dragged down, down to the same spot enough times in a row

D                          Bm
The bottom begins to feel like the only safe place that you know

F#m
But you know what? I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

F#m
I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

F#m
I've been sucking it in so long

F#m
That I'm busting at the seams

F#m
I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

F#m
I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

F#m
I've been sucking it in so long

Bm
That I'm busting at the seams

F#m
(I spread like strawberries), I spread like strawberries

Bm
I climb like (I climb like peas and beans)

F#m
I spread like strawberries

Bm
I climb like peas and beans

F#m
I spread like strawberries

Bm
I climb like peas and beans (That I'm busting at the seams)

F#m
I spread like strawberries

Bm
I climb like peas and beans
