Fireflies chords by Dave Hause

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:


G+G
I've got a sepia toned Polaroid of you from days gone by

E minorEm
You look so good in shades but I wish I could see your eyes

C majorC
Shining bright right back at me like you saw something in mine

D MajorD
Lighting up the August night like dizzy fireflies

G+G
If we saved a thousand dollars back then we knew we would be fine

E minorEm
We'd sneak into the golf course back when all we had was time

C majorC
We'd lie under the fireflies and drink a box of wine

D MajorD
Long before you wanted more and this whole world lost its mind

C majorC             G+G
This whole world lost its mind


Chorus:


G+G
Can you meet me there tonight?

E minorEm
I don't want nothing but your hand in mine

G+G
Like when we were young and wild eyed

C majorC              D MajorD
We had nothing but plenty of time

G+G  C majorC     G+G
Lit under the fireflies

Verse 2:


G+G
If I can double up my salary, next year we might afford a house

E minorEm
I could work away my fingerprints, grind the teeth out of my mouth

C majorC
You said if we can't find our hope, we'll end up living by our fear

D MajorD
But every day seems less ok and it hasn't been our year


G+G
I'm older now and all I know how is to work to see your face

E minorEm
Smiling proud, knowing we carved out some tiny little space

C majorC
But this clock just keeps on ticking, we can't seem to slow it down

D MajorD
Let's kick against the current and I'll hold you if we drown

C majorC          G+G
I'll hold you if we drown


Chorus:


G+G
Can you meet me there tonight?

E minorEm
I don't want nothing but your hand in mine

G+G
Like when we were young and wild eyed

C majorC              D MajorD
We had nothing but plenty of time

G+G  C majorC     G+G
Lit under the fireflies

Interlude:

G+G E minorEm C majorC D MajorD

Chorus:


G+G
Can you meet me there tonight?

E minorEm
I don't want nothing but your hand in mine

G+G
Like when we were young and wild eyed

C majorC              D MajorD
We had nothing but plenty of time

G+G
Meet me there tonight

E minorEm
Meet me there tonight

C majorC              D MajorD
Right when we were young and wild eyed

C majorC              D MajorD
We had nothing but plenty of time

C majorC       G+G  E minorEm
Lit under the fireflies

C majorC       G+G  E minorEm
Lit under the fireflies

C majorC       G+G  C majorC
Lit under the fireflies
