Props to the (ver 3) author, I used theirs as a template for this. Some tricky chords:

    Dbmaj7           Csus4            F7      or      F7       and I assume you know F...
e|-----4-----|  e|-----3-----|  e|-----1-----|  e|-----1-----|
B|-----6-----|  B|-----6-----|  B|-----4-----|  B|-----4-----|
G|-----5-----|  G|-----3-----|  G|-----2-----|  G|-----2-----|
D|-----6-----|  D|-----5-----|  D|-----1-----|  D|-----3-----|
A|-----4-----|  A|-----3-----|  A|-----3-----|  A|-----------|
E|-----------|  E|-----------|  E|-----1-----|  E|-----------|

Then there's this riff at the end of each vocal line in the verses:

 RIFF
e|---------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------|
G|-----1--3--1--5--3--1-----1------------|
D|--3--------------------3-----3---------|
A|---------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------|

Listen to the song for the right timing of that.

    It might seem crazy what I'm about to say 
F7                                                (riff)

I'm a      hot air balloon that could go to space 
         F7                                              (riff)
