[Intro]
B C#m7 Asus2
B C#m7 Asus2


[Verse 1]
B            C#m7
You would not believe your eyes
Asus2
If ten million fireflies
B         C#m7              Asus2
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
B                 C#m7
'Cause they'd fill the open air
Asus2
Leave teardrops everywhere
      B
You'd think me rude
    C#m7                       Asus2
But I would've just stand and stare


[Chorus]
Asus2      E5           B
I'd like to make myself believe
     C#m7    Asus2 E5   B  C#m7
That planet Earth turns slowly
     Asus2               E5
It's hard to say that I'd rather
      Asus2    B   C#m7
Stay awake when I'm asleep
Asus2               E5         B
'Cause everything is never as it seems


[Verse 2]
B              C#m7
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
Asus2
From ten thousand lightning bugs
B               C#m7             Asus2
As they tried to teach me how to dance
(Teach me how to dance)
B         C#m7
A foxtrot above my head
Asus2
A sockhop beneath my bed
B              C#m7               Asus2
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread


[Chorus]
Asus2      E5           B
I'd like to make myself believe
     C#m7    Asus2 E5   B  C#m7
That planet Earth turns slowly
     Asus2               E5
It's hard to say that I'd rather
      Asus2    B   C#m7
Stay awake when I'm asleep
Asus2               E5         B
'Cause everything is never as it seems


[Bridge]
B            C#m7         Asus2
Leave my door open just a crack
(please take me away from here)
B                 C#m7          Asus2
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(please take me away from here)
B       C#m7              Asus2
Why do I tire of counting sheep
(please take me away from here)
B               C#m7            Asus2
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

B             C#m7
To ten million fireflies
Asus2
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
B    C#m7                     Asus2
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
B                 C#m7
But I'll know where several are
Asus2
If my dreams get real bizarre
B
'cause I saved a few
    C#m7              Asus2
And I keep them in a jar


[Chorus]
Asus2      E5           B
I'd like to make myself believe
     C#m7    Asus2 E5   B  C#m7
That planet Earth turns slowly
    Asus2               E5
It's hard to say that I'd rather
      Asus2    B   C#m7
Stay awake when I'm asleep
Asus2               E5         B
'Cause everything is never as it seems


[Outro]
Asus2                E5
Because my dreams are bursting
       B   C#m7 Asus2 B C#m7 Asus2
At the seams
