That's really it, there are only two riffs. The main riff is played for
essentially the entire song, until the very end, when it's the outro w/ a
lick I included at the bottom. Below are the lyrics. Enjoy!

Verse: Main Riff
Well my baby told me, You gotta get better if you ever wanna win
And I know that, But she ain't getting any better man, she just sin
I still love her, but I know I was once there wearin' them shoes
I'm still hurtin, cuz the woman I love's givin me the blues

Main Riff
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_revivalists/catching_fireflies_tab.html ]
I'm sitting here sober, but I wonder what state she'll find me in
I need her under my skin, like a junkie needs heroin
And I'm never goin back to Snake & Jake's, amount of money I spent I coulda bought the place
Not to mention that they know my face, now it's hell getting out the place cuz

Chorus
I'm walkin the streets tonight, I'm catching some fireflies
Some would say that I'm livin a lie, no more today, no more tonight
You could say that I'm under the gun, nine million miles away from the sun
I've hesitated much too long, still having fun, hope you're havin fun

Verse
belly up in an ambulance I spent Sunday making doctor friends
I could’ve used a pair of depends I hope that made you laugh ‘cause you know I’m a gentlemen
heaven found me living didn’t find me dead got a permanent ash mark on my forehead
but it still couldn’t save me from lying in bed staring at your clothes in the
closet while I was out of my head

Chorus


Outro w/ lick
I’m a peaceful man today ain’t got no more weekend wars to wage so give me one more shot babe
