Regular tuning and no capo.

E-A-D--(2x)

E                          A
You would not believe your eyes
D                            E                     A      D
If ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep
E                      A
'Cause they'd fill the open air
D
and leave teardrops everywhere
E              A                  D
you'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare


Chorus:
D              A         E
I'd like to make myself believe
            D     A     C#m    D
that planet Earth turns slowly
        D               A            D      E      F#m
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
D                   A          B
'Cause everything is never as it seems


      ~Same chords as verse~
'Cause id 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

D              F#m         E
I'd like to make myself believe
            D     A     C#m    D
that planet Earth turns slowly
        D               A            D      E      F#m
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
D                   A             E
'Cause everything is never as it seems
           D
When i fall asleep
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/o/owl_city/fireflies_crd_ver_11.html ]
E-A-D--
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

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause i hate goodbyes
i got misty eyes as they said farewell
but ill know where several are
if my dreams get real bizarre
'cause i saved a few and i keep them in a jar


D              F#m         E
I'd like to make myself believe
            D     A     C#m    D
that planet Earth turns slowly
        D               A            D      E      F#m
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
D                   A             B
'Cause everything is never as it seems
           D
When i fall asleep

D              F#m         E
I'd like to make myself believe
            D     A     C#m    D

           D
When i fall asleep

D              F#m         E

D                   A                 E
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams...
