	Cadd9      D/F#         G   Em7   Cadd9
Our whole universe was in a hot dense state,
            Cadd9            D/F#      G         Em7     N/C
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started. Wait...
    Cadd9       D/F#
The Earth began to cool,
         G              Em7
The autotrophs began to drool,
       Cadd9           D/F#
Neanderthals developed tools,
           G
We built a wall (we built the pyramids),
Cadd9          D/F#       G             Em7
Math, science, history, unravelling the mysteries,
     Cadd9       D/F#         G
That all started with the big bang!



           Cadd9   D/F#           G   Em7  Cadd9
"Since the dawn of man" is really not that long,
         Cadd9      D/F#                G                Em7     
As every galaxy was formed in less time than it takes to sing this song.
  Cadd9         D/F#           G             Em7
A fraction of a second and the elements were made.
    Cadd9           D/F#
The bipeds stood up straight,
        G                   Cadd9
The dinosaurs all met their fate,
                                 D/F#
They tried to leap but they were late
             G
And they all died (they froze their asses off)
    Cadd9         D/F#
The oceans and pangea
        G              Cadd9
See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya
                     D/F#     G
Set in motion by the same big bang!
Cadd9          D/F#         Cadd9
It all started with the big BANG!



D      G       Cadd9 G       Cadd9       Em7
It's expanding ever  outward but one day
D       G         Cadd9    G      Cadd9       Em7
It will cause the stars to go the other way,
           D            Cadd9                G              Em7
Collapsing ever inward, we won't be here, it wont be heard
              D                    Cadd9         D                Cadd9
Our best and brightest figure that it'll make an even bigger bang!

Australopithecus would really have been sick of us
  Cadd9            D/F#                   G
Debating how we're here, they're catching deer (we're catching viruses)
  Cadd9        D/F#      G            Cadd9
Religion or astronomy, Encarta, Deuteronomy
               D/F#         G
It all started with the big bang!
Cadd9       D/F#     G            Cadd9
Music and mythology, Einstein and astrology
               D/F#         G
It all started with the big bang!
Cadd9          D/F#         G (Once)
It all started with the big BANG!
