Song For The Fireflies Chords

Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

GAfter all the lights had died

[G/f#]

Out behind the palisades park

EmFireflies remembered to do

CExactly what they were supposed to

GMemories were like coins that tumbled

[G/f#]

Somersaulting through the deep

EmDown every well we through them in

CUntil they came to the top again and oAmut

Like the Emsun

In your Amhair, in your Chair

Every month that ends its spin

Is picked up by the moon for keeping

Clean and safe from accidents

Sheltered from the elements

But June is like an echo

Of the sounds we never made

I swear they find me in my waking hours

Thirty days like poison flowers

The wind in your hair

Like a sigh, like a sigh

With intermittent rain and shine

The sky re-started six or seven times

It's blue because it sees

All our infidelities

We both know that it's been so long

I'm not sure what to say so I hope

Fireflies remember to do

Exactly what it was they used to
