Fireflies Lyrics

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

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

Cause (F)I believe in (C)fairy tales
And (F)dreamer's dreams
Like (C)bedsheet sails
And (F)I believe in (C)Peter Pan
And (F)miracles, any(C)thing I can to (G)get by
And fireflies (C) . . . (C/B) . . . (F) . . . (G*) . . .

Now be(C)fore I grew up I (C/B)saw you on a (F)cloud (G*)
And I could (C)bless myself (C/B)in your name
And (F)pat you on your (G)wings
And be(C)fore I grew up I (C/B)heard you whisper so (F)loud (G*)Lori McKenna - Fireflies - http://motolyrics.com/lori-mckenna/fireflies-lyrics.html
Well (C)life is hard and (C/B)so is love
Child, be(F)lieve in all these (G)things

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

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

And fireflies
And firefliies . . .

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