Fireflies

D  A  G    D  A  D  A

D                 A          
Before you met me I was a fairy 
        G
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                         
I found mayonnaise bottles and 
    D
poked holes on top
    A            G
To capture Tinkerbell
They were just fireflies to the 
   D
untrained eye
Continues after the ad
           A         G
But I could always tell
   G          D            
I believe in fairy tales and 
    G                   D
dreamers dreams like bed

sheet sails
    G              D         
And I believe in Peter Pan and 
   G
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
