[Bb] [Ab]
[Bb]
I would not believe your [Ab] eyes if ten million [Bb] fireflies lit [Eb] up the world as I fell [Ab] asleep.
[Bb] Cause they'd [Eb] fill the open [Ab] air and leave teardrops everywhere.
[Bb] You'd think me rude, but I would just [Ab] stand and stare.
[Ab] I'd like [Eb] to make [Bb] myself believe that [Ab] planet Earth [Eb] turned [Gm] [Ab] slowly.
It's hard to say [Eb] that I'd rather stay awake when [Cm] I'm asleep.
[Ab] Cause everything [Eb] is never as [F] it [Gm] seems.
[Bb] Cause I'd get a thousand [Ab] hugs from ten thousand lightning [Bb] bugs as they'd try to teach me [Eb] how to dance.
[Cm]
[Bb] A frog trot above my [Ab] head, a sock hop beneath my [Bb] bed, a disco ball is just hanging [Ab] by a thread.
I'd [Cm] like to make [Bb] myself believe that [Ab] planet [Eb] Earth turned [Ab] slowly.
It's hard to say [Eb] that I'd rather stay awake when [Cm] I'm asleep.
[Ab] Cause everything [Eb] is never [Bb] as it seems.
[Ab] [Bb] Leave my door open [Ab] just a crack.
[Bb] Cause I'd feel like such an [Ab] insomniac.
[Bb] Why do I tire of [Ab] counting sheep?
[Bb] When I'm [Eb] far too tired to [Ab] fall asleep.
[Bb] To ten million [Ab] fireflies, I'm weird cause I hate goodbyes.
[Bb] I got misty eyes as they [Ab] said farewell.
[Bb] But I'll know where several [Ab] are if my dreams get real [Bb] bizarre.
Cause I saved a [Eb] few and I keep them [Ab] in a jar.
I'd like to make [Bb] myself believe that [Ab] planet [Eb] Earth turned slowly.
[Ab] It's hard to say that I'd rather [Eb] stay awake when [Cm] I'm asleep.
[Ab] Cause everything [Eb] is never [F] as it seems.
[Ab] I'd like to make [Bb] myself believe that [Ab] planet [Eb] Earth turned slowly.
[Ab] It's hard to say that I'd rather [Eb] stay awake when [Cm] I'm asleep.
