Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]You [G]looked like my [D]mother
[G]Did when she was nin[D]eteen
Not afraid [A]to die[D]
I [G]started planning our fu[D]ture,
[G]but you were just [D]19,
[A]still a [D]fire[A]fly[D]
[G]You've got terrible [D]vision
[G]Should've seen I [D]was leaving
When I first ap[A]peared
But [D]I, [G]I got bit by t[D]he footlights
[G]I got caught in the headl[D]ights
[A]Headed anyplace but [D]here[A]
[G]Never [A]say, you'll never [Bm]leave,
cause [A]you never know [G]till you try
And a jar [A]of fire[Bm]flies
only last[A]s f[G]or one n[Em]ight
[D]I'm hateful [G]an d heartbroken [D]feelings [G]come
easy [D]as a waitress on a cool summer [A]night
And [D]I wonder [G]if there's any [D]justice
[G]Cause if there's supposed to be [D]justice
[A]Something ain't rig[D]ht[A]
Yeah, [D]trains roll [G]like gamblers in [D]slow -mo
[G]Tryin' to find [D]justice,
cause they couldn't find [A]love
Oh yeah, [D]I,
I [G]wanna sleep on [D]the train tracks
[G]It's gonna be peace[D]ful,
[A]it's gonna get [D]rough[A]
[G]Never say[A], never lea[Bm]ve,
[A]you never know [G]till you try
In a jar [A]of fire[Bm]flies,
all that last[A]s for one n[G]ight
[Bm]I'll [A]last for one [G]night[D]
You [G]look like my [D]mother
[G]Did when she was nin[D]eteen
Not afraid [A]to die
For the [D]last [G]time, I'm not your [D]father
[G]Hell I was on [D]the 19th,
[A]and still a fire[D]fly
