A                                        D 
Me and Charlie boy used to go walking, sittin? in the  
                  A 
woods behind my house 
 D                          A 
When being lovers meant a stolen kiss and holding hands  
                   E 
with nobody else around 
   A                                    D 
Charlie said he wanted to get married, but we were only  
                     A 
ten so we?d have to wait 
D                                    A 	  	  	  	       
He said we?d never let our love run dry like so many do  
 
these days 
 
Chorus 
   
   A                                           D 
Charlie always said he?d like to leave here, turned  
                              A 
eighteen and left our sleepy town  
  D                                 A 
Letters came and went and I kept waiting for Charlie to  
                                    E 
come back and bring the life he?d found 
  A 	                                  D 
Funny how time and distance change you, the road you take  
                       A 
don?t always lead you home 
 D                                 A          
You can start a love with good intentions and then you  
 
look up and it?s gone 
 
Chorus 
 
 A                                      D 
Even now I sometimes think of Charlie, how we thought we  
                  A 
new it all back then 
 D                        A          
Now I?d give anything to feel love from a child?s heart  
 
again 
 
Chorus

Chorus: 
 
 D                                                 D    E   	  	  
So we treat our love like a firefly, like it only gets to  
  A 
shine, for a little while 
  D                                                    D    
Catch it in a mason jar and with holes in the top and run  
  E   A 
like hell to show it off 
G                                  E                  G 
Oh promises we made when we?d go walkin?, that?s just me  
 D     E       A 
and Charlie talking 
 
---------------- 
 
The 2nd and 3rd Chorus goes: 
So you treat your love like a firefly....
