Owl city by: Fireflies

[Verse 1]

G                C

You would not believe your eyes

F                        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

[Chorus 1]

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          D

'Cause everything is never as it seems

[Verse 2]

G                C             F

'Cause I'd 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

[Chorus 2]

F              Am         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

           F

When I fall asleep

[Bridge]

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

[Verse 3]

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

[Chorus 3]

F              Am         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             D

'Cause everything is never as it seems

           F

When I fall asleep

F              Am         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

           F

When I fall asleep

F              Am         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...
