C                    E  
Before the Earth was round, 
Am               F      
Oh there was no end to things. 
C                    E
And no one tried to measure,
Am               F     G
What they knew. 

Am              E
Everything was war, 
                   F
But everyone knew love. 
G#                          Am  
And every contradiction was true. 
                        E
The Sun worked twice as hard, 
                          F
And the Moon was twice as far. 
G#                              C
And the sky was still honestly blue.
F        G#
                           C
The sky was still honestly blue. 

[Key Change]

D#             G
When the time came,
Cm                  G#
Everything spiralled in.
D#        G         Cm        G#
Everyone forgot what they knew. 

Cm            G
War became a job,
                  G#
And love became a mystery.
     B                           Cm
And heart and head were rent into two. 
               G
Fear and doubt began,
                       G#
And God threw up his hands,
         B                      D#
And the sky didn't know what to do. 
 G#  B                       D#
The sky didn't know what to do.
