Fireflies

D  A G G A D A G


D                 A               G
Before you met me I was a fairy princess
D                   A
I caught frogs and called them prince
      G             A
And made myself a queen
D                       A                     G
And before you knew me I'd traveled 'round the world
       D
And I slept in castles
     A
And fell in love
        G                A
Because I was taught to dream

         G                           D
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
    G             D
To capture Tinker Bell
      G                                D
And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye
     G             A
But I could always tell

 G                  D
Cause I believe in fairy tales
  G
And dreamer's dreams
      D
Like bedsheet sails
    G            D
And I believe in Peter Pan
    G          D                  A
And miracles, anything I can to get by
             D
And fireflies

D                   A               G
Now before I grew up I saw you on a cloud
            D             A
And I could bless myself in your name
    G               A
And pat you on your wings
D                    A                   G
And before I grew up I heard you whisper so loud
D                     A
Well life is hard and so is love
          G                 A
Child, believe in all these things

Chorus

         G                           D
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
    G             D
To capture Tinker Bell
      G                                D
And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye
     G             A
But I could always tell

 G                  D
Cause I believe in fairy tales
  G
And dreamer's dreams
      D
Like bedsheet sails
    G            D
And I believe in Peter Pan
    G          D                  A
And miracles, anything I can to get by
             D  A  G  A   D
And fireflies,             fireflies

D   A   G  A

D                 A                G
Before you met me I was a fairy princess
D                   A

       D

        G                         D
Because I was taught to dream
