Fireflies Ron Pope
Intro- C# Fm x2
When the s[C#]treetlights come on and the f[Fm]ireflies flicker,
I am [C#]walking her home making plan[Fm]s.
With her [C#]shoes in her hands, I am wat[Fm]ching her dance,
As the [C#]hem of her dress gently [Fm]kisses the grass.
[C#] [Fm]
[Eb]It suddenly[Bb] rains on[F#9] us,
[Eb]She is laughing [Eb]and turns up her[F#9] hands.
Like autumn turns [C#]leaves, winter will [G#]breathe, cold on our [Bbm]necks,
Snow in our[F#9] paths.
Wherever she [C#]goes, all that I [G#]know about us is that bea[Bbm]utiful things never
[F#9]last. Thats why fireflies flash
C# Fm x2
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/ron_pope/fireflies_crd.html )
When this [C#]summertime ends, we will [Fm]not part as friends,
Things were [C#]promised in blood, we have [Fm]sinned.
Now there's [C#]tears in her eyes as she's [Fm]screaming goodbyes
I run '[C#]long side the car turning [Fm]numb to the sound.
[C#] [Fm]
[Eb]I notice a [Bbm]chill in the [F#9]air,
[Eb]September is creeping up [F#9]fast.
Like autumn turns [C#]leaves, winter will [G#]breathe, cold on our [Bbm]necks,
Snow in our[F#9] paths.
Wherever she [C#]goes, all that I [G#]know about us is that bea[Bbm]utiful things never
[F#9]last. Thats why fireflies flash
[C#] [Fm]
[Eb]Innocence didn't m[F#9]ean we're immune to these things,
[Bbm]Let's blame the passage of [G#]time
[Eb]Love and loss, truth it co[F#9]sts more than I can spare right now.
[Bbm]Maybe it's simpler to [G#]lie.
Like autumn turns [C#]leaves, winter will [G#]breathe, cold on our [Bbm]necks,
Snow in our[F#9] paths.
Wherever she [C#]goes, all that I [G#]know about us is that bea[Bbm]utiful things never
[F#9]last. Thats why fireflies flash
C# Fm To End
