Intro:

C

Verse 1:

C             G                 Am             F
you would not believe your eyes if ten million fireflies
C          G                  Am             F
lit up the world as i fell asleep
C                     G           Am              F
cause they'd feel the open air and leave teardrops everywhere
C                       G                      Am              F
you'd think me rude but i would just stand and stare

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

Verse 2:

C             G             Am                F
cause i get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs
C         G                  Am             F
as they try to teach me how to dance
C         G            Am          F
a foxtrot above my head, a sockhop beneath my bed
C        G                        Am             F
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread



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

(when i fall asleep)

Bridge:

C             G           Am
leave my door open just a crack
        F
(please take me away from here)
C            G            Am
cause i feel like such an insomniac
        F
(please take me away from here)
C       G                Am
why do  tire of counting sheep
        F
(please take me away from here)
C               G             Am             F
when i'm far to tired to fall asleep

Verse 3:

C              G          Am              F
to ten million fireflies, i'm weird cause i hate goodbyes
C         G                 Am             F
got misty eyes as they said farewell
C                   G           Am                F
but i'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizzare
C                       G                  Am             F
cause i saved a few and i keep them in a jar



F          C            G
i'd like to make myself believe
F                 C     G    Am
that planet earth turns slowly
F                C                    F             Am
it's hard to say that i'd rather stay awake when i'm asleep
F                C              G
cause everything is never as it seems
                C
when i fall asleep
