OWL CITY
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
You
would not believe your eyes
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
If ten million fireflies
G F Eb Bb Bb Bb F Eb C
G F Eb Bb Bb Bb F Eb C
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
'Cause they'd fill the open air
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
And leave tear drops everywhere
Bb Bb G F

You'd think me rude
Eb Bb Bb G F C Eb
Eb Bb Bb G F C Eb
But I would just stand and stare
G F Eb Bb G F Eb F
I'd like to make myself believe
Bb Eb D C Bb D C
Bb Eb D C Bb D C
That planet Earth turns slowly
C C Eb Eb Eb G F Eb Bb Bb C Bb Eb F C
C C Eb Eb Eb G F Eb Bb Bb C Bb Eb F C
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
C C Eb Eb G F Eb Bb Eb F Eb C
C C Eb Eb G F Eb Bb Eb F Eb C
'Cause everything is never as it seems
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
From ten thousand lightning bugs
G F Eb Bb G F Eb C
G F Eb Bb G F Eb C
As they tried to teach me how to dance
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
A foxtrot above my head
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
A sock hop beneath my bed
Bb G F Eb Bb Bb G F C Eb
Bb G F Eb Bb Bb G F C Eb
The disco ball is just hanging by a thread
G F Eb Bb G F Eb F
G F Eb Bb G F Eb F
I'd like to make myself believe

That planet Earth turns slowly

'Cause everything is never as it seems
Bb G F Eb Eb
Bb G F Eb Eb
When I fall asleep
Bb F Eb F Eb F Eb C
Leave my door open just a crack
Bb C Eb Bb C Eb Bb
Bb C Eb Bb C Eb Bb
(Please take me away from here)

'Cause I feel like such an insomniac

Why do I tire of counting sheep?
Bb C Eb Bb C Eb Bb

(Please take me away from here)
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb F G Eb
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb F G Eb
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
To ten million fireflies
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
F G F Eb Bb Bb Bb F Eb C
F G F Eb Bb Bb Bb F Eb C
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
Bb F F Eb F Eb Bb
But I'll know where several are
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
Bb C C Bb C Eb F
If my dreams get real bizarre
Bb Bb Bb G F Eb Bb Bb G F Bb Eb
Bb Bb Bb G F Eb Bb Bb G F Bb Eb
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
