Standard (EADGBE)

I bought a balloon for twenty pence

When I was at the fair

I dropped it by mistake

And it went right into the air

I missed it oh so terribly

When up and up it flew

And then I had a horrible thought

it probably missed me too.

But one thing made me happy

As it floated in the sky

It must have had a lovely view

'Cos it was up so high.
