#Intro: F F Gm Gm Dm Dm A# A#

Verse 1:

F F Gm Gm
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag,
Dm Dm A# A#
drifting through the wind
F F
wanting to start again?
Gm Gm Dm Dm
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
A# A#
like a house of cards,
F F
one blow from caving in?
Gm Gm Dm Dm
Do you ever feel already buried deep?
A# A# F F
6 feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Gm Gm Dm Dm
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
A# A#
'Cause there's a spark in you


Pre-chorus:
F F Gm Gm Dm Dm A# A#
You just gotta ignite, the light, and let it shine
F F Gm Gm Dm Dm A# A#
Just own the night like the 4th of July


Chorus:
F F Gm Gm
'Cause baby you're a firework
Dm Dm A# A#
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
F F Gm Gm
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
Dm Dm A# A#
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
F F Gm Gm
Baby, you're a firework
Dm Dm A# A#
Come on, let your colors burst
F F Gm Gm
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
Dm Dm A# A#
You're gonna leave 'em falling down-own-own


Verse 2: (same as verse 1)

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know


Pre-chorus


Chorus


Bridge:
F F Gm Gm
Boom, boom, boom
Dm Dm A# A#
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
F F Gm Gm
It's always been inside of you, you, you
Dm Dm A# A#
And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough


Chorus


F F Gm Gm
Boom, boom, boom
Dm Dm A# A#
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
F F Gm Gm
Boom, boom, boom
Dm Dm A# A#
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

About this song: Firework

Perry told Billboard that the inspiration for the song came from an unlikely source. "My boyfriend showed me a paragraph out of Jack Kerouac's book On The Road, about people that are buzzing and fizzing and full of life and never say a commonplace thing. They shoot across the sky like a firework and make people go, 'Ahhh.' I guess that making people go 'ahhh' is kind of like my motto." ( Firework Songfacts).
