You would not believe your eyes
Am F C G Am, F,
If ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep
C G
'Cause they'd fill the open air
Am F
and leave teardrops everywhere
C G Am F
you'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare
Chorus-
Am C G
I'd like to make myself believe
Am C G F
that planet Earth turns slowly
Am G C G Am
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Am C D(still unsure about last chord!)
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(Same chords as verse)
'Cause id get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs
as they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
a sockhop beneath my bed
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread
Am C G
I'd like to make myself believe
Am C G F
that planet Earth turns slowly
Am G C G Am
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Am C D(still unsure about last chord!)
'Cause everything is never as it seems
C G
When i fall asleep leave my door open just a crack
Am F
(please take me away from here)
C G
'Cause i feel like such an insomniac
Am F
(please take me away from here)
why do i tire of counting sheep
(please take me away from here)
when I'm far too tired to fall asleep
To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause i hate goodbyes
i got misty eyes as they said farewell
but ill know where several are
if my dreams get real bizarre
'cause i saved a few and i keep them in a jar
Chorus (x2)
Am C G
I'd like to make myself believe
Am C G F
that planet Earth turns slowly
Am G C G Am
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Am C D(still unsure about last chord!)
'Cause everything is never as it seems

Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell;
Jimmy Rodgers on the victola up high.
Mama's dancin' baby on her shoulders,
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky.
Asus A Gsus G
The boy could soon know how to move everything;
Fsus F Csus C
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for.
[Chorus]
Gm Csus C
Black Velvet in that little boy's smile.

Black velvet in with that slow southern style.
Gm C
A new religion that'll bring you to your knees,

Black velvet, if you please.
[Verse 2]

Up in Memphis the music's like a heat wave,
White lightening, bound to drive you wild.
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl,
Love me tender leaves 'em cryin' in the aisles.

The way he moved it was a sin so sweet and true,

Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for.

I'm not lovin' you the way I wanted to
I can't keep my cool, so I keep it true
I got somethin to lose, so I gotta move
I can't keep myself, and still keep you too
So I keep in mind, when I'm on my own
Somewhere far from home, in the danger zone
How many times did I tell ya fo it finally got through
You lose, you lose
I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to
See I had to go, see I had to move
No more wastin' time, you can't wait for life
We're just racin' time, where's the finish line

I'm not lovin you, the way I wanted to
I bet no one knew, I got no one new
I know I said I'm through, but got love for you
But I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to
Gotta keep it goin', keep the lovin' goin'
Keep it on a roll, only God knows
If I be with you, baby I'm confused
You choose, you choose
I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to
Where I wanna go, I don't need you
I've been down this road, too many times before
I'm not lovin' you, the way I wanted to

F G C/E F (Entire Chorus)
Yeah… gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin
Gotta live like we're dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying
(Continued after the jump)
Well if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, there'll be no one on the line
Yeah… we gotta start lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here
This all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second count on a clock that's tickin
Gotta live like we're dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying
Like we're dying oh…
Like we're dying
Like we're dying oh…
Like we're dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying
You never know a good thing until it's gone
you never see a crash until its head on
All these people right when we're dead wrong,
You never know a good thing till it's gone
Yeah… we gotta start lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here
this all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second count on a clock that's tickin
Gotta live like we're dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying
Like we're dying oh…
Like we're dying
Like we're dying oh…
Like we're dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying

But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty,

Waitin on a woman

He said the wedding took a year to plan,
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous,
Waitin on a woman
And he nudged my arm like old men do, and said
I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it,
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
And I don't guess we'd been anywhere
F
She hasn't made us late I swear,
C G C
Sometimes she does it just cause she can do it,
Am (G)
Boy it's just a fact of life,
F
it's be the same with your young wife,
C F C
Might as well go on and get used to it,
Dm C-F
she'll take her time, cause you don't mind,

And that makes sense cause I know she won't be ready,

So when it finally comes my time,

I'll find myself a bench if they got any,

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving

Emaj7
You can rest your mind assure
G#m A#m D#7 G#m7 G#m6 C#m7 F#7
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 2-
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do know what I say is true
G#m A#m D#7 (G#m)
That I'll be loving you always

Did you know that life has given love a guarantee

To last through forever and another day (just)
Verse 3-
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 4-
As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me that past but that I mustn't fear
For I'll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
Chorus 2 [chorus chord progression continues to fade]-
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and sea just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Chorus 3-
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through
Until the day that you are me and I am you
[repeat first two lines of chorus 1]
[piano solo]
Interlude-
We all know sometimes life's hate and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where He wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great-great-grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you...

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe
D Bm F#m / Em7 Gm / /
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind
Possessing and caressing me
[Chorus] D / A7sus4 /

Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe
D Bm F#m / Em7 / A A7
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letterbox
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe
[Chorus]

Sounds of laughter, shades of life are ringing through my opened ears
Inciting and inviting me

Limitless, undying love which shines around me like a million suns
And calls me on and on across the universe

I love you
I long to see the sunshine in your hair.
And tell you time and time again
How much I care.
I sometimes feel my heart will overflow.
Hello, I've just got to let you know.
'Cause I wonder where you are.
And I wonder what you do.
Are you somewhere feeling lonely?
Or is there someone loving you?
Tell me, how to win your heart,
For I haven't got a clue.
But let me start by saying
I love you.

Eb Cm Ab Eb
Eb Cm
When I was in the third grade I thought I was gay
Ab Eb
'Cause I could draw, an' my uncle was, and I kept my room straight
Eb Cm
I told my mom tears rushing down my face
Ab Eb
She's like Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k, trippin'
Eb Cm
Yea I guess she had a point didn't she?
Ab Eb
Bunch of stereotypes all in my head.
Eb Cm
I remember doing the math like, yea I'm good at little league
Ab Eb
A preconceived idea of what it all meant
(repeat progression)
For those that liked the same sex
Had the characteristics
The right wing conservatives think it's a decision
And you can be cured with some treatment and religion
Man made rewiring of a predisposition
Playing god, aw nah here we go
America the brave still fears what we don't know
And god loves all his children, is somehow forgotten
But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago
I don't know
Eb Eb Eb/C Eb/Ab Eb
And I can't change
Eb Eb/C
Even if I tried
Ab Eb
Even if I wanted to
Eb
I'm acting strange

If I was gay, I would think hip-hop hates me
Cm/Ab Eb
Have you read the YouTube comments lately
Eb Ebsus4/F Eb/G Cm
Man, that's gay get dropped on the daily
Ab Ab6 Ab7 Eb
We become so numb to what we're saying
Eb Cm
A culture founded from oppression, yet we don't have acceptance for 'em
Ab Eb
Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board
Eb Cm
A word rooted in hate, yet our genre still ignores it
Ab Eb
A gay is synonymous with the lesser
Eb Cm
It's the same hate that's caused wars from religion
Ab Eb
Gender to skin color, the complexion of your pigment
(repeat progression)
The same fight that led people to walk outs and sit ins
It's human rights for everybody, there is no difference!
Live on and be yourself
When I was at church they taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service those words aren't anointed
That holy water that you soak in has been poisoned
Eb Eb/C
When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless
Cm/Ab Cm7/Bb
Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen
Eb Gm7
I might not be the same, but that's not important
Ab Eb
No freedom till we're equal, damn right I support it
Eb Eb/C Eb/Ab Eb
Eb Eb/C Ab Eb
(repeat)
And I can't change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love
My love
My love
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
Eb Cm
And press play, don't press pause
Ab Eb
Progress, march on
Eb
With the veil over our eyes
Cm
We turn the back on the cause
Ab Eb
Till the day that my uncles can be united by law
When kids are walking 'round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart
A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are
And a certificate on paper isn't gonna solve it all
But it's a damn good place to start
No law is gonna change us
We have to change us
Whatever god we believe in
We come from the same one
Eb Gm7
Strip away the fear
Ab Eb
Underneath it's all the same love
About time we raised up
Eb Cm Ab Eb
And I can't change
Eb Cm
Even if I tried
Ab Eb
Even if I wanted to
Eb
I'm acting strange
Eb/C Ab Eb
Even if I try

Even if I wanted to
Ab
My love, my love, my love

She keeps me warm

Singer Songwriter
You're not the first boy to offer the world
I think you're cool but I'm not that kind of girl
If I wanted to sleep my way to the top
I'd a done been there
I'm not just another girl singer songwriter
Playing in a cafe waiting for her big break, no
Any other girl would be lucky you found her
Fall over in love, but I cannot because of who I am
I'm a good girl, at least I'm trying to be
Until some dumb fool brings out the in me
Cause if I wanted to sleep my way to the top
Believe me I'd a done been there
Chorus
You think as a girl I'm used to getting everything that I want
But I worked very hard for every single thing that I'd got
I studied and that's why I'm smart
I pour my love into my art
And no one can take that part of who I am
Chorus
