Sara Kays - Fireflies Chords

[intro]
E  A  E  A

[verse 1]
E
 You would not believe your eyes
A
 If ten million fireflies
E                            A
 Lit up the world as I fell asleep
B                          E
 'Cause they'd fill the open air
A
 And leave teardrops everywhere
       B
You'd think me rude,
     E                       A
but I would just stand and stare

[chorus]
A                 C#m       B
I'd like to make myself believe
             A      E    G#m  A
That Planet Earth turns slowly
                          E
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
A       E      C#m   A
Awake when I'm asleep
A                 E             F#
'Cause everything is never as it seems

[verse 2]
B                    E
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
A
From ten thousand lightning bugs
B                 E          C#m
 As they tried to teach me how to dance
B            E
a foxtrot above my head
A
a sock hop beneath my bed
     B               E                A
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread

[chorus]
A                 C#m       B
I'd like to make myself believe
             A      E    G#m  A
That Planet Earth turns slowly
                          E
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
A       E      C#m   A
Awake when I'm asleep
A                 E             F#
'Cause everything is never as it seems

[bridge]
B              E            A
Leave my door open just a crack
B                   E           A
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
B            E               A
Why do I tire of counting sheep
B                E             A
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep?

[interlude]
B  E  A  B  E  A

[chorus]
A                 C#m       B
I'd like to make myself believe
             A      E    G#m  A
That Planet Earth turns slowly
                          E
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
A       E      C#m   A
Awake when I'm asleep
A                 E             F#
'Cause everything is never as it seems

[outro]
              A  C#m   B
When I fall asleep
A  B  C#m  A
Mmmmmmmmm...
   A                        E
It's hard to say that I'd rather
       A       B      C#m
stay awake when I'm asleep
        A            E             F#
'Cause everything is never as it seems
