B EYou would not believe your eyes

A B E AIf ten million fireflies lit up the world as I fell asleep

B E'Cause they'd fill the open air

Aand leave teardrops everywhere

B E Ayou'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare

A E BI'd like to make myself believe

A E G#m Athat planet Earth turns slowly

A E A B C#mIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

A E F#'Cause everything is never as it seems

B E A'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs

B E Aas they tried to teach me how to dance

B EA foxtrot above my head

Aa sockhop beneath my bed

B E Aa disco ball is just hanging by a thread

A C#m BI'd like to make myself believe

A E G#m Athat planet Earth turns slowly

A E A B C#mIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

A E B'Cause everything is never as it seems

AWhen I fall asleep

B E Aleave my door open just a crack

(please take me away from here)

B E A'Cause I feel like such an insomniac

(please take me away from here)

B E Awhy do I tire of counting sheep

(please take me away from here)

B E Awhen I'm far too tired to fall asleep

B ETo ten million fireflies

AI'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes

B E AI got misty eyes as they said farewell

B Ebut I'll know where several are

Aif my dreams get real bizarre

B E A'cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

A C#m BI'd like to make myself believe

A E G#m Athat planet Earth turns slowly

A E A B C#mIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

A E F#'Cause everything is never as it seems

AWhen I fall asleep

A C#m BI'd like to make myself believe

A E G#m Athat planet Earth turns slowly

A E A B C#mIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

A E A B C#mIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

A E BBecause my dreams are bursting at the seams...
