Fireflies (acoustic)(Keyboard chords)

	        
  

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

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

C                 G  
 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs  
Am                               F  
 From ten thousand lightning bugs  
C                        G                           Am             F  
 As they tried to teach me how to dance  

C           G             
 A foxtrot above my head  
Am            F  
 A sock hop beneath my bed  
  C                           G                      F  
A disco ball is just hanging by a  thread  

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

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

C               G  
 To ten million fireflies  
Am                          F  
 I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes   
  C              G                         Am           F  
I got misty eyes as they said farewell  

C                    G           
 But I'll know where several are  
Am                F             
 If my dreams get real bizarre  
          C                 G             Am    F  
 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a  jar  

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


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