100000 Fireflies

D    G        D    A
   I have a   mandolin.
D    G        D    A
   I play it all night long.
D     G        D       A      G
   It makes me want to kill myself.

D           G        D    A
I also have a dobro
D           G        D    A
made in some mountain range
D     G        D       A     G
sounds like a mountain range in love

D             G           A
   but when I turn up the tone
D       G          A
on my electric guitar

D    A           D                C        G
I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me.
D    A           D                C        G
I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me.

       D           G         D    A
I went out to the forest and caught
  D       G        C  G
A hundred thousand fireflies.
   D        G              D
As they ricochet round the room
A     D       G       C      G
they remind me of your starry eyes.

Em                A           G           D
Someone else's might not have made me so sad
    Em                 A           G
but this is the worst night I ever had,

       D     A          D                C          G
'cause I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me.
D     A           D                C        G
I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me.

D  A  D  A  G  A  G  A
G            D     A
You won't be happy with me,
G            D     A
but give me one more chance
G            D     A   G
you won't be happy anyway.
G            D     A
Why do we still live here
G            D     A
in this repulsive town?
G            D     A   G
All our friends are in New York.
G            D     A
Why do we keep shrieking,
G            D     A
when we mean soft things?
G            D     A   G
We should be whispering all the time...
