G                          D
You would not believe your eyes
Em              C        G          D               Em     C
If ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep
G                      D
'Cause they'd fill the open air 
Em                  C    
and leave teardrops everywhere
G                       D                  Em     C
you'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare


Em               G         D
I'd like to make myself believe
            Em     G     D    C
that planet Earth turns slowly
        Em               D            G      D      Em
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Em                   G           A
'Cause everything is never as it seems


G               D
'Cause id get a thousand hugs
Em                C              G                D               Em     C
from ten thousand lightning bugs as they tried to teach me how to dance
G          D
A foxtrot above my head
Em          C
a sockhop beneath my bed
G               D                 Em     C
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread

Em          G           D
I'd like to make myself believe
            Em    G     D    C

G                   D       
Leave my door open just a crack
Em              C
(please take me away from here)
G                          D
'Cause i feel like such an insomniac
Em                  C
(please take me away from here)
G                   D
Why do i tire of counting sheep
Em               C
(please take me away from here)
G                  D              Em    C
when I'm far too tired to fall asleep

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

Em               G         D
I'd like to make myself believe
            Em     G     D    C
