You can either keep repeating the intro it use these chords... vary the
progressions as you want.)
When the streetlights come on and the fireflies flicker,
I am walking her home making plans.
With her shoes in her hands, I am watching her dance,
As the hem of her dress gently kisses the grass.
INTRO
It suddenly rains on us,
She is laughing and turns up her hands.
Like autumn turns leaves, winter will breathe, cold on our necks, snow in
our paths.
Wherever she goes, all that I know about us is that beautiful things never
last, that's why fireflies flash.
INTRO
When this summertime ends, we will not part as friends,
Things were promised in blood; we have sinned.
Now there's tears in her eyes as she's screaming goodbyes,
I run 'long side the car turning numb to the sound.
INTRO
I notice a chill in the air,
September is creeping up fast.
Like autumn turns leaves, winter will breathe, cold on our necks, snow in
our paths
Wherever she goes, all that I know about us is that beautiful things never
last, that's why fireflies flash.
Innocence didn't mean we're immune to these things,
Let's blame the passage of time.
Love and loss, truth it costs more than I can spare right now.
Maybe it's simpler to lie...
FINAL CHORUS
Like autumn turns leaves, winter will breathe, cold on her necks, snow in
our paths.
Wherever she goes, all that I know about us is that beautiful things never
last, that's why fireflies flash.
INTRO
Ooooh.... That's why fireflies flash...
Ooooh....
END
all in all it's really simple and like someone told me before, a "heart melter".
tell me what you think, any criticism is welcome.
