standard tuning of the song firefiles owl city:

Intro part of the song:  
Bb Eb Ab 4x
 
Bb                 Eb
 You would not believe your eyes
Ab
 If ten million fireflies
Bb           Eb                Ab
 Lit up the world as I fell asleep

Bb                           Eb
 'Cause they'd fill the open air
Ab
 And leave teardrops everywhere
 Bb
You'd think me rude
 Ab
But I would just stand and stare


Ab             Cm            Bb
 I'd like to make myself believe
 Ab    Eb    Gm Ab
That planet Earth turns slowly
 Ab                   Eb
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
 Ab       Bb     Cm
Awake when I'm asleep
 Ab               Eb          F    Eb
'Cause everything is never as it seems

Bb                          Eb
 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
Ab
 From ten thousand lightning bugs
Bb                 Eb              Ab
 As they tried to teach me how to dance

Bb            Eb
 A fox trot above my head
Ab
 A sock hop beneath my bed
 Bb          Eb                  Ab
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

Ab             Cm            Bb
 I'd like to make myself believe
 Ab    Eb    Gm Ab
That planet Earth turns slowly
 Ab                   Eb
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
 Ab       Bb     Cm
Awake when I'm asleep
 Ab               Eb          F  
'Cause everything is never as it seems
 Eb
When I fall asleep

Bb                  Eb      Ab
 Leave my door open just a crack  (Please take me away from here)
Bb                  Eb            Ab
 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac (Please take me away from here)
Bb         Eb                Ab
 Why do I tire of counting sheep (Please take me away from here)
Bb                 Eb              Ab
 When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

Bb                    Eb
 To ten million fireflies
Ab
 I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
Bb             Eb               Ab
 I got misty eyes as they said farewell

Bb                           Eb
 But I'll know where several are
Ab
 If my dreams get real bizarre
Bb                        Eb                Ab
 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

Ab             Cm            Bb
 I'd like to make myself believe
 Ab    Eb    Gm Ab
That planet Earth turns slowly
 Ab                   Eb
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
 Ab       Bb     Cm
Awake when I'm asleep
 Ab               Eb          F  
'Cause everything is never as it seems
 Eb
When I fall asleep

Ab             Cm            Bb
 I'd like to make myself believe
 Ab    Eb    Gm Ab
That planet Earth turns slowly
 Ab                   Eb
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
 Ab       Bb     Cm
Awake when I'm asleep
 Ab               Eb          F  
'Cause everything is never as it seems
 Eb
When I fall asleep

Ab             Cm            Bb
 I'd like to make myself believe
 Ab    Eb    Gm Ab
That planet Earth turns slowly
 Ab                   Eb
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
 Ab       Bb     Cm
Awake when I'm asleep
 Ab                  Eb              Bb
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

Fireflies Owl City Guitar Tabs

 
Now first off i know this tab isn't completely right but its by ear,
its kinda hard to tab something that fast by ear, i did the best i could,
but if you play it on a good clean channel with some delay it sounds pretty good,
nobody would know the difference if you dont play it along with the song. Enjoy

I hope you like it.......
