Tabbed by Kevin Shoptaw
Capo on the 3rd fret
I tabbed this as best as I could,
and I'm sure these are the right Acoustic chords.
Great song!
=)
C G
You would not believe your eyes
Am F C G Am, F,
If ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep
C G
'Cause they'd fill the open air
Am F
and leave teardrops everywhere
C G Am F
you'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare
Chorus:
Am C G
I'd like to make myself believe
Am C G F
that planet Earth turns slowly
Am G C G Am
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Am C D(still unsure about last chord!)
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(Same chords as verse)
'Cause id get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs
as they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
a sockhop beneath my bed
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread

Am C G
I'd like to make myself believe
Am C G F
that planet Earth turns slowly
Am G C G Am
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Am C D(still unsure about last chord!)
'Cause everything is never as it seems
C G
When i fall asleep leave my door open just a crack
Am F
(please take me away from here)
C G
'Cause i feel like such an insomniac
Am F
(please take me away from here)
why do i tire of counting sheep
(please take me away from here)
when I'm far too tired to fall asleep
To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause i hate goodbyes
i got misty eyes as they said farewell
but ill know where several are
if my dreams get real bizarre
'cause i saved a few and i keep them in a jar
Chorus (x2)
Am C G
I'd like to make myself believe
Am C G F
that planet Earth turns slowly
Am G C G Am
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Am C D(still unsure about last chord!)
'Cause everything is never as it seems
