Intro:

C-----------------------------------------------------------
E-----------------------------------6--------6------6-------
A-1-8-8-8-6-8-6-1-1-3-3-3-1-3-6-8-6---10-8-6---10-8---6-----

G                          C
You would not believe your eyes
F
If ten million fireflies
G                C          F
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
 G                   C 
?Cause they fill the open air
F
And leave teardrops everywhere
G                      C                      F
You think me rude, but I?d just stand and stare

Chorus:
F           C             G
I'd like to make myself believe
            F     C     Em  F
That planet earth turns slowly
     F                    C           F          G    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

G-C-F--

 G             C
?Cause I get a thousand hugs
F
From ten thousand lightning bugs
G              C               F
As they try to teach me how to dance
G          C
A foxtrot above my head
F
A sockhop beneath my bed
  G                  C            F
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread)


F           C             G
I'd like to make myself believe
            F     C     Em  F
That planet earth turns slowly
     F                    C           F          G    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)

G             C           F
Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
G                  C              F
?Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
G        C                F
Why do I tire of counting sheep?
(Please take me away from here)
G               C               F
When I'm far to tired to fall asleep

G              C
To ten million fireflies
F
I'm weird ?cause I hate goodbyes
  G              C               F
I got misty eyes as they said farewell (said farewell)
G                C
But I know where several are
F
If my dreams get real bizarre
        G                  C               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     Em  F
That planet earth turns slowly
     F                    C           F          G    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)


F           C             G
I'd like to make myself believe
            F     C     Em  F
That planet earth turns slowly
     F                    C           F          G    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)


F           C             G
I'd like to make myself believe
            F     C     Em  F
That planet earth turns slowly
     F                    C           F          G    Am
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
  F                   C               G      
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams?
