Our whol ^Cadd9 e universe ^D was in a hot ^G dens ^G/F# e stat ^Em7 e,
Cadd9 D G G/F# Em7
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started. Wait...
The ^Cadd9 Earth began ^D to cool,
The autot ^G rophs b ^G/F# egan to ^Em7 drool,
Neander ^Cadd9 thals developed ^D tools,
We built a ^G wall (we b ^G/F# uilt the p ^Em7 yramids),
^Cadd9 Math, science, ^D history, un ^G ravel ^G/F# ling the ^Em7 mysteries,
That ^Cadd9 all started ^D with the big ^G bang!

"Since the ^Cadd9 dawn of ^D man" is really ^G not ^G/F# that ^Em7 long,
As every ^Cadd9 galaxy was ^D formed in less time ^G than it t ^G/F# akes to ^Em7 sing this song.
A ^Cadd9 fraction of a ^D second and the ^G elem ^G/F# ents were ^Em7 made.
The ^Cadd9 bipeds stood up ^D straight,
The dino ^G saurs all ^G/F# met their ^Em7 fate,
They tried to ^Cadd9 leap but they were ^D late
And they all ^G died (they f ^G/F# roze their a ^Em7 sses off)
The ^Cadd9 oceans and pan ^D gea
See ya, ^G wouldn't w ^G/F# anna ^Em7 be ya
Set in m ^Cadd9 otion by the ^D same big ^G bang!
^Cadd9 It all started ^D with the big ^Cadd9 BANG!

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