[Verse]
C
It started back when we
G
Were wild and free
D
With nothing to lose
C
The world was you and me
C
Our flame burned bright
G
In those starry skies
D
We were shooting stars
C
Like fireflies
[Chorus]
C
Oh oh oh
G
Oh oh-woah-oh
D
Oh oh oh
C
Oh oh-woah-oh
[Verse]
C
We carved our names
G
And we made a pact
D
We used to fool around
C
In the fields out back
C
We fell in love
G
On a summer breeze
D
On a bed of petals
C
Beneath our Dogwood tree
[Bridge]
C
It's the story of us
G
The way it used to be
D
Those Honeysuckle days
Seem so far away to me
C
Now your name once carved
G
In hearts upon a tree
D
Is deep inside of me
C
Like fireflies
[Refrain 1]
C
Out in the night
G
So high in the sky
D
Burning so bright
C
We were fireflies
C
Up up and away
G
Where we'll always stay
D
Ablaze, like fireflies
[Chorus]
C
Oh oh oh
G
Oh oh-woah-oh
D
Oh oh oh
C
Oh oh-woah-oh
C
Like fireflies
[Chorus]
C
Oh oh oh
G
Oh oh-woah-oh
D
Oh oh oh
C
Oh oh-woah-oh
[Refrain 2]
C
I won't forget the feeling
G
Of our first kiss
D
D trembling heart
C
And a moonlit dance
C
And the look of the world
G
Through the eyes of a child
D
It was an endless ride
N.C.
The call of the wild
[Chorus]
C
Oh oh oh
G
Oh oh-woah-oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh-woah-oh

Oh oh oh

Oh oh-woah-oh

Out in the night
G
So high in the sky
D
Burning so bright

We were fireflies
C
Up up and away
G
Where we'll always stay
D
Ablaze, like fireflies
[Chorus]

Oh oh oh

We were fireflies
