the basic chords in this acoustic remix of fireflies by owl city are F C Am D G

F C
you would not believe your eyes
G Am x2
if ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep
’cause they’d fill the open air
and leave teardrops everywhere
you’d think me rude but i’d just stand and stare

repeat through every verse

[ chorus : ]

F C G
i’d like to make myself believe
F C G Am
that planet earth turns slowly
F C G Am
it’s hard to say that i’d rather stay awake when i’m asleep
F C D
’cause everything is never as it seems

’cause i’d 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

[ repeat chorus ]
