You would not believe your eyes
F chordF F chordF
If ten million fireflies
G chordG C chordC F chordF
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
F chordF F chordF
And leave teardrops everywhere
G chordG C chordC F chordF
You'd think me rude But I would just stand and stare

F chordF C chordC G chordG
I'd like to make myself believe
F chordF C chordC Em chordEm F chordF
That planet Earth turns slowly
F chordF C chordC F chordF G chordG Am chordAm
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay Awake when I'm asleep
F chordF C chordC G chordG
'Cause everything is never as it seems


G chordG C chordC
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
F chordF
From ten thousand lightning bugs
G chordG C chordC F chordF
As they tried to teach me how to dance
G chordG C chordC
a foxtrot above my head
F chordF
a sock hop beneath my bed
G chordG C chordC F chordF
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread

That planet Earth turns slowly

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

G chordG C chordC
To ten million fireflies
F chordF
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
G chordG C chordC F chordF
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
G chordG C chordC
But I'll know where several are
F chordF
If my dreams get real bizarre
G chordG C chordC F chordF
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like to make myself believe

That planet Earth turns slowly
