Chords
[Verse 1]
A# You would not believe your eyes,
G# If ten million fireflies
A# Lit up the world as I fell asleep. G#
A# 'Cause they'd fill the open air,
G# And leave teardrops everywhere,
You'd A#think me rude, but I would just stand andG# stare.
[Chorus]
G# I'd like to makeEb/G myself believe, D#5
That planet EarthG# Eb/Gturns A#slowG#ly...
It's G#hard to say that I'd Eb/Grather
Stay awake,G# when A#I'm asleep, Cm
'Cause G#everything is Eb/Gnever as it seems... F/A A#sus4
[Verse 2]
A# 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
G# From ten thousand lightning bugs,
A# As they tried to teach me how to G#dance!
A# A foxtrot above my head,
G# A sockhop beneath my bed,
A disA#co ball is just hanging by a G#thread!
[Chorus]
G# I'd like to makeEb/G myself believe, D#5
That planet EarthG# Eb/Gturns A#slowG#ly...
It's G#hard to say that I'd Eb/Grather
Stay awake,G# when A#I'm asleep, Cm
'Cause G#everything is Eb/Gnever as it seems... F/A
(When I A#sus4fall asleep)
[Verse 3]
A# Leave my door open just a crack, G#
(Please take me away from A#here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac, G#
(Please take me away from A#here)
Why do I tire of counting G#sheep,
(Please take me away from A#here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep! G#
A# To ten million fireflies
G# I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes,
A# I got misty eyes as they said fareG#well...
A# But I'll know where several are,
G# If my dreams get real bizarre,
'Cause A#I saved a few and I keep them in a G#jar!
[Chorus]
G# I'd like to makeEb/G myself believe, D#5
