Intro  F  C  Dm  Am 

   F               C 
Heaven, heaven’s bodies 
       Dm               Am 
Whirl around me make me wonder 
    Am   Bb  Am   Bb   Am  Bb C Dm 
And they say back then our universe 
       C  Am Bb  Am Bb Am Bb C   Dm 
Was an empty sea, until a silver fox 
        C   Am  Bb  Am Bb  Am Bb C Dm 
And her cunning mate began to sing 

  C         Am Bb  Am  Bb    Am Bb C Dm 
A song that became the world we know 

Heaven, heaven’s bodies 
Whirl around me make me wonder 
And they say back then our universe 
Was a cold black egg until the god inside 
Burst out and from it's shattered shell 
He made what became the world we know 

Heaven, heaven’s bodies 
Whirl around me make me wonder 
And they say back then our universe 
Was an endless land, until our ancestors 
Woke up and before they went back to sleep 
They carved it up into the world we know 

Heaven, heaven’s bodies 
Whirl around me make me wonder 
And they say back then our universe 
Wasn’t even there until a sudden bang 
And then there was light was sound  
Was matter and it all became the world we know  

Heaven, heaven’s bodies 
Whirl around me dance eternal
