Intro: G
G
Come in close now it's time to tell the story
Long ago, and so many years before we
Am
Ever were, ever dreamed we even could be
D
There was her and her very first heartbeat
G
All alone in a corner of the night sky
Spiral bones of a supernova starlight
Am
Fell in love with another burning bright
D (C)
She dreamed of a way to ignite she said
G
Tonight
Am
Come on, come on collide
D
Break me to pieces I
I think you're just like heaven
G Am
Why, come on, come on collide
D
Let's see what a fire feels like
G
I bet it's just like heaven
Just like heaven
Just like heaven
G
Such a shame nowhere near even a near miss
Light years away from the hope of being sun-kissed
Am
Anchored home in her interstellar sea but
D
Poor lonely Cassiopeia
G
So she sighs and she burns with desperation
Learns to cry over love of constellations
Am
Then a spark from a star shooting too close
D (C)
They both smiled "What a day to explode"
She said
G
Tonight
Am
Come on, come on collide
D
Break me to pieces I
I think you're just like heaven
G Am
Why, come on, come on collide
D
Let's see what a fire feels like
G
I bet it's just like heaven
Just like heaven
Just like heaven
G
Long ago in a sky built before us
A supernova grew up to be stardust
End on G
