(please take me away from here)
[Bb] when I'm far [Eb]too tired to fall a[G#]sleep
Verse 4:
[Bb] To ten million [Eb]fireflies
[G#] I'm weird cause i hate goodbyes
[Bb] i got misty [Eb]eyes as they said [G#]farewell
[Bb] but i'll know where [Eb]several are
[G#] if my dreams get real bizarre
cause [Bb]i saved a few and
[Eb]i keep them in a [G#]jar
(Repeat Chorus 1 twice)

[G#] I'd like to [Eb/G]make myself be[Bb]lieve
that planet [G#]Earth [Eb]turns s[Gm]low[G#]ly

stay a[G#]wake when [Bb]I'm as[Cm]leep
Be[G#]cause my dreams are
Eb Bb(hold)
bursting at the seams
