Intro:

[C]

C (x32010@1)                  E (022100@1)
Before the Earth was round, 
Am (x02210@1)             F (133211@1)    
Oh there was no end to things. 
C (x32010@1)                  EAnd (022100@1)no one tried to measure,
Am (x02210@1)             F (133211@1)   GWhat (320003@1)they knew.

Am (x02210@1)            EEverything (022100@1)was war, 
                   FBut (133211@1)everyone knew love. 
Ab (xx1114@1)                        Am (x02210@1)
And every contradiction was true. 
                        EThe (022100@1)Sun worked twice as hard, 
                          FAnd (133211@1)the Moon was twice as far. 
Ab (xx1114@1)                            CAnd (x32010@1)the sky was still honestly blue.

F (133211@1)      Ab (xx1114@1)                          CThe (x32010@1)sky was still honestly blue.

C (x32010@1)           EWhen (022100@1)the time came,
Am (x02210@1)                FEverything (133211@1)spiralled in.
C (x32010@1)      E (022100@1)       Am (x02210@1)      FEveryone (133211@1)forgot what they knew.

Am (x02210@1)          EWar (022100@1)became a job,
                  FAnd (133211@1)love became a mystery.
     Ab (xx1114@1)                         AmAnd (x02210@1)heart and head were rent into two. 
               EFear (022100@1)and doubt began,
                       FAnd (133211@1)God threw up his hands,
         Ab (xx1114@1)                    CAnd (x32010@1)the sky didn't know what to do. 
 F (133211@1)Ab (xx1114@1)                     CThe (x32010@1)sky didn't know what to do.

The song fades out playing about on the F, G#, C thing.
