this is kinda my acoustic version for this awesome song .
i changed the riff cos the original version is in dropped – C and i put this in standard tuning .
you can also use power chords for it or whatever . . . enjoy!

Am G
you my friend / you’re a lot like them
Em F
but i caught your lie / and you know i did
Am G
now i’m lost in you / like i always do
Em F
and i’d die to win / ’cause i’m born to lose

[ chorus : ]
C G
firefly / could you shine your light
F G#5 ( 6x ) A#5 ( 2x )
now i know your ways / ’cause they’re just like mine
C G
now i’m justified / as i fall in line
F G#5 ( 6x )
and it’s hard to try / when you’re open wide

intro ( 1x ) then Am

Am G
take my hand / we’ll be off and then
Em F
we’ll come back again / to a different land
Am G
now i like this way / you can go away
Em F
if you guess the name / you cannot replace

[ chorus ]

Am
bring me your enemies
F
lay them before me
Am G F Am G F
Am G F
and walk away / walk away / walk away!!!

[ chorus ]

fxxk you firefly
have you lost your light
now i hate your ways
’cause they’re just like mine
so you lost my friend
such a sorry end
and i don’t know why
so i choke and smile
