D GYou would not believe your eyes

C D G CIf ten million fireflies lit up the world as I fell asleep

D G'Cause they'd fill the open air

Cand leave teardrops everywhere

D G Cyou'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare

C G DI'd like to make myself believe

C G Bm Cthat planet Earth turns slowly

C G C D EmIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

C G A'Cause everything is never as it seems

D G C'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs

D G Cas they tried to teach me how to dance

D GA foxtrot above my head

Ca sockhop beneath my bed

D G Ca disco ball is just hanging by a thread

C Em DI'd like to make myself believe

C G Bm Cthat planet Earth turns slowly

C G C D EmIt's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

C G D'Cause everything is never as it seems

CWhen I fall asleep

D G Cleave my door open just a crack

(please take me away from here)
