Fireflies

D  A  G    D  A  D  A

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

Before you knew me I travelled 'round the world
I slept in castles and fell in love
Because I was taught to dream
         G                             D
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
    A            G
To capture Tinkerbell
                                   D
They were just fireflies to the untrained eye
           A         G
But I could always tell
   G          D                G                   D
I believe in fairy tales and dreamers dreams like bed

sheet sails
    G              D            G
And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles
        D               A
And anything I can to get by
           D    A  G  A
And fireflies
Before I grew up I saw you on a cloud
I could bless myself in your name and pat you on you wings
Before I grew up I heard you whisper so loud
"Life is hard, and so is love, child, believe in all these things"
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
To capture Tinkerbell
And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell

(Chorus)

     D  A  G  A
Fireflies

D  A  G  A  (x2)

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