Verse
   
Bb                      Eb   
  You would not believe your eyes   

Abmaj7               
  If ten million fireflies   

Bb                   Eb          Abmaj7   
  Lit up the world as I fell asleep   

Bb                      Eb   
  Cuz they fill the open air   

Abmaj7               
  And leave teardrops everywhere   

       Bb                      Eb            Abmaj7   
You think me rude, but I would just stand and stare   


   
Abmaj7          Cm7           Bb         
  I'd like to make myself believe   

            Abmaj7  Eb      Gm  Abmaj7   
That planet earth   turns slo..wly   

                          Eb            Abmaj7   Bb     Cm7   
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep   

    Abmaj7         Eb         F     Gm   
Cuz everything is never as it seems   



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


Abmaj7          Cm7           Bb         
  I'd like to make myself believe   

            Abmaj7  Eb      Gm  Abmaj7   
That planet earth   turns slo..wly   

                          Eb            Abmaj7   Bb     Cm7   
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep   

    Abmaj7         Eb         F     Gm   
Cuz everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)  
   


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

Verse   
To ten million fireflies   
I'm weird cuz I hate goodbyes   
I got misty eyes as they said farewell (said farewell)   
But I know where several are   
If my dreams get real bizarre   
Cuz I saved a few and I keep 'em in a jar   


Abmaj7          Cm7           Bb         
  I'd like to make myself believe   

            Abmaj7  Eb      Gm  Abmaj7   
That planet earth   turns slo..wly   

                          Eb            Abmaj7   Bb     Cm7   
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep   

    Abmaj7         Eb         F     Gm   
Cuz everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)
