D

[Verse]
        E
I ask a question
         A                D
I let it go just like a balloon
                   A
I'll never need to know
           E
No need to waste time
          A
holding a string
          D
I already know that
            A
I love everything

[Chorus]
          D
I ask for nothing
    Em        Bm
But maybe i'm lying
G            D
I don't know nothing
    Em        Bm      G
But I know i'm trying

[Verse]
             E                  A
It's not the nothingness at the end
               D
So much as the message
                  A
nothingness would send
                E            A
I just like the feeling imagining
             D
That every balloon comes
               A
back without a string

[Verse]
          E                 A
Not yet asleep but lying in bed
               D
Looking at the ceiling,
                A
looking in your head
              E
It's like the ocean,
                 A
thoughts can run deep
                D
Forget it-- Hey you,
                  A
wake up and go to sleep
