C5       D5              G5   D5     E5
Our whole universe was in a hot dense state,
            C5                D5         G5         D5        E5
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started. Wait...
    C5              D5
The Earth began to cool,
    G5          D5        E5
The autotrophs began to drool,
       C5              D5
Neanderthals developed tools,
           G5          D5        E5
We built a wall (we built the pyramids),
C5              D5        G5         D5    E5
Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries,
     C5           D5            G5
That all started with the big bang!


           C5       D5              G5   D5    E5
"Since the dawn of man" is really not that long,
         C5          D5              G5            D5        E5
As every galaxy was formed in less time than it takes to sing this song.
  C5             D5              G5        D5    E5
A fraction of a second and the elements were made.
    C5               D5
The bipeds stood up straight,
    G5              D5        E5
The dinosaurs all met their fate,
              C5                  D5
They tried to leap but they were late
             G5          D5           E5
And they all died (they froze their asses off)
    C5          D5
The oceans and pangea
        G5              D5  E5
See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya
       C5             D5        G5
Set in motion by the same big bang!
       C5                D5      A5
It all started with the big BANG!


D5       G5             E5             A5
It's expanding ever outward but one day
D5        G5                  E5            A5
It will cause the stars to go the other way,
A5          D5                        E5               A5
Collapsing ever inward, we won't be here, it wont be hurt
A5            D5                E5                  A5          C5
Our best and brightest figure that it'll make an even bigger bang!

C5        D5             G5           D5            E5
Australopithecus would really have been sick of us
C5                  D5                     G5           D5         E5                             
Debating out while here they're catching deer (we're catching viruses)
C5           D5          G5        D5     E5
Religion or astronomy, Encarta, Deuteronomy
   C5           D5        G5
It all started with the big bang!
 C5        D5          G5        D5    E5
Music and mythology, Einstein and astrology
   C5           D5        G5
It all started with the big bang!
   C5           D5        G5
It all started with the big BANG!
