From Emil's Tablature
Note: the album version is up a half step. The live version is in D. Because
of the open stringings, if you want to play it in Eb I suggest you use a capo :).
Build up to D9 ...

Those are the three components to the intro, listen to a recording
for the matching up. Below, you can substitute the C with a C9
Here is an alternative take on the intro from Jake Cohen <jcohen59@hotmail.com>

D9 C (Third riff)
I'm floating in the blimp a lot
D9 C9 (Third riff)
I feel the feeling I forgot
(Third Riff)
Swimming weightless in the womb
(Third Riff)
Bouncing gently round the room
(etc...)
In a minute I'll be free
And we'll be splashing in the sea
I feel no curiosity
I see the path ahead of me
In a minute I'll be free
And we'll be splashing in the sea
We hear a tiny cry
As the ship goes sliding by
Free!
Free!
Free!

I'm floating in the blimp a lot

I feel free
[repeat signature riff]
