  S1:
  You would not believe your eyes 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 would just stand and stare
• FCFEmiFFCFGAmiFCDCC/EGsus4
  R1:
  I'd like to make myself believe 

  That planet Earth turns slow---ly 

  It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 

  'Cause everything is never as it seems
• CGFCFAmiGGCFGCF
  S2:
  '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 sock hop beneath my bed 

  The disco ball is just hanging by a thread

  R2:
  I'd like to make myself believe 

  That planet Earth turns slow---ly 

  It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 

  'Cause everything is never as it seems (When I fall asleep)

  B:
  Leave my door open just a crack (Please take me away from here) 

  'Cause I feel like such an insomniac (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

  S3:
  To ten million fireflies I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes 

  I got misty eyes as they said farewell (Said farewell) 

  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

  R3:
  I'd like to make myself believe 

  That planet Earth turns slow---ly 

  It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 

  'Cause everything is never as it seems (When I fall asleep)

  R4:
  I'd like to make myself believe 

  That planet Earth turns slow---ly 

  It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 

  Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
