               D                        Dmaj7              Bm
Well let's go back to the middle of the day that starts it all
           Em             Emmaj7             Dsus4 A
I can't begin to let you know just what I'm feeling
             D              Dmaj7
And now the red ones make me fly
         Bm
And the blue ones help me fall
       Em                Emmaj7              Dsus4 A
And I think I'll blow my brain  against the ceiling

And as the fragments of my skull begin to fall
Fall on your tongue like pixie dust, just think happy thoughts

Chorus:
               D   Dmaj7 Bm
And we'll fly home,
           G  D Em A
We'll fly home
You and I,
We'll fly home

Well now, I'm back in the middle of the day that starts it all
I can't begin to let you know just what I'm feeling
And now, the red ones make me fly and the blue ones help me fall
And I think I'll blow my brains against the ceiling now

Chorus:
We'll fly home
You and I, we'll fly home

Now honestly, that's what I said to her
What I said to her, ahh!

Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts
Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts
Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts
Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts
Think ha... Whoo!
