Intro :
G G C C F F x2

G G C C
You would not believe your eyes
F F
If ten million fireflies
G G C C F F
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
G G C C
Cuz they fill the open air
F F
And leave teardrops everywhere
G G C C F F
You think me rude, but I would just stand and stare

F F C C G G
I'd like to make myself believe
F F C C Em Em F F
That planet earth turns slowly
F F C C F F G G Am Am
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
F F C C G G
Cuz everything is never as it seems

G G C C
Cuz I get a thousand hugs
F F
From ten thousand lightning bugs
G G C C F F
As they try to teach me how to dance
G G C C
A A foxtrot above my head
F F
A A sockhop beneath my bed
G G C C F F
A A disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread)

F F C C G G
I'd like to make myself believe
F F C C Em Em F F
That planet earth turns slowly
F F C C F F G G Am Am
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
F F C C G G
Cuz everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)

G G C C F F
Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
G G C C F F
Cuz I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
G G C C F F
Why do I tire of counting sheep?
(Please take me away from here)
G G C C F F
When I'm far to tired to fall asleep

G G C C
To ten million fireflies
F F
I'm weird cuz I hate goodbyes
G G C C F F
I got misty eyes as they said farewell (said farewell)
G G C C
But I know where several are
F F
If my dreams get real bizarre
G G C C F F
Cuz I saved a few and I keep 'em in a jar

F F C C G G
I'd like to make myself believe
F F C C Em Em F F
That planet earth turns slowly
F F C C F F G G Am Am
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
F F C C G G
Cuz everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)

F F C C G G
I'd like to make myself believe
F F C C Em Em F F
That planet earth turns slowly
F F C C F F G G Am Am
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
F F C C G G
Cuz everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)

F F C C G G
I'd like to make myself believe
F F C C Em Em F F
That planet earth turns slowly
F F C C F F G G Am Am
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
F F C C G G
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
