Verse
Bb Eb Ab
You would not believe your eyes ■
Bb
If ten million fireflies ■
Eb Ab
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
Bb Eb
'cause they fill the open air
Ab
And leave teardrops everywhere
Bb Eb Ab
You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare

'cause everything is never as it seems ■
Verse
Bb Eb Ab
'cause I'd get a thousand hugs ■
From ten thousand lightning bugs
Bb Eb Ab
As they tried to teach me how to dance
Bb Eb Ab
A foxtrot above my head ■
A sock hop beneath my bed
Bb Eb Ab
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread ■

When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
Bb Bb7 Eb Ab
To ten million fireflies ■
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes

But I'll know where several are

If my dreams get real bizarre

'cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
