[Eb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Ab] [Bb]
[Eb] [Ab] [Bb]
You [Eb] would not believe [Ab] your eyes If ten million [Bb]
fireflies
[Eb] Lit up the world as I [Ab] fell asleep Cause [Eb]
they fill the open air
[Ab] And leave teardrops everywhere [Bb] You'd think me [Eb] rude but I would just [Ab] stand
and stare [Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] I'd like to make myself believe
That [Ab] planet [Eb] Earth turns [Gm] [Ab] slowly It's hard to [Eb] say that I'd rather [Ab] stay [Eb] awake
when [Cm] I'm asleep [Ab]
Cause everything [Eb] is never [F] as it [Gm] seems
[Ebm] Cause I get a thousand [Ab] hugs From ten thousand [Eb] lightning [Bb] bugs
As they try to teach me [Eb] how to [Cm] dance A [Eb]
fox trot above my [Ab] head
A sock hop [Eb] beneath my bed A disco ball is just hanging by a [Cm] thread
[Ab]
I'd [Cm] like to make [Eb] myself believe That [Ab] planet [Eb] Earth turns [Ab] slowly
It's hard to [Eb] say that I'd rather stay awake when [Cm] I'm asleep
[Ab] Cause everything [Eb] is never [Bb] as it seems
[Cm] [Ab] Leave [Bb] [Bb] my door [Eb] open [Ab] just to crack [Eb] [Bb] Cause I feel like [Eb] such an [Ab] insomniac
[Cm] [Eb] Why do I tire of [Ab] counting sheep [Eb] [Bb] When I'm [Eb] far too tired to [Ab] fall asleep
To [Bb] [Eb] ten [Gm] million [Eb] [Ab] fireflies I'm weird cause I hate [Eb] goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they [Ab] said farewell But [Bb] I'll know where [Eb] several [Ab] are
If my dreams get real bizarre [Bb] Cause I [Eb] saved a few and I keep them [Ab] in a jar
I'd [Cm] like to make myself [Eb]
believe That [Ab] planet [Eb] Earth turns [Ab] slowly
It's hard to say [Eb] that I'd rather stay awake when [Cm] I'm asleep
[Ab] Cause everything [Eb] is never as [F] it seems
[Eb] [Ab] I'd like [Cm] to make [Bb] myself believe That [Ab] planet [Eb] Earth turns slowly
[Ab] It's hard to say [Eb] that I'd rather stay awake when [Cm] I'm asleep
[Ab] Cause everything [Eb] is never as [Bb] it seems
