D5 A5 G5 D5 A5 D5 A5
D5 A5 G5
Before you met me I was a fairy princess
D5 A5
I caught frogs and called them prince
G5 A5
And made myself a queen
Before you knew me I travelled 'round the world
I slept in castles and fell in love
Because I was taught to dream
G5 D5
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
A5 G5
To capture Tinkerbell
D5
They were just fireflies to the untrained eye
A5 G5
But I could always tell
G5 D5 G5 D5
I believe in fairy tales and dreamers dreams like bed
sheet sails
G5 D5 G5
And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles
D5 A5
And anything I can to get by
D5 A5 G5 A5
And fireflies
Before I grew up I saw you on a cloud
I could bless myself in your name and pat you on you wings
Before I grew up I heard you whisper so loud
"Life is hard, and so is love, child, believe in all these things"
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
To capture Tinkerbell
And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell
(Chorus)
D5 A5 G5 A5
Fireflies
D5 A5 G5 A5 (x2)
Before you met me I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince
And made myself a queen
Before you knew me I travelled 'round the world
And I slept in castles and fell in love
Because I was taught to dream
