[Primera Parte]

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

[Estribillo]

             C             G
I'd like to make myself believe
            F      C      Em  F
That planet Earth turns slo_wly
                           C            F        G      Am
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
       F              C           D9
'Cause everything is never as it seems

[Segunda Parte]

G                   C           F
  'Cause id get a thousand hugs   from ten thousand lightning bugs
G                   C               F
  As they tried 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

[Estribillo]

             C             G
I'd like to make myself believe
            F      C      Em  F

[Terceira Parte]

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 too 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
G                      C 
  But I'll 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
