[Intro]
D D/B Asus4 G/D
[Verse 1]
When the Dearth was still flat
And the Bm7clouds made of fire
And Asus4mountains stretched up to the sky
G/DSometimes higher
GFolks roamed the earth like big rolling kegs
They had Dtwo sets of arms, they had two sets of legs
The hadD/F# two faces peering out of Gone giant head
So they couldEm watch all around them
As they A7talked while they read
And they Gnever knew Anothing of Dlove
It was beGfore... Awhoa... the origin of Dlove G
The origin of Dlove G
[Verse 2]
And there were Bmthree sexes then, one that looked
Like two men glued up back to Dback, called the children of the Gsun.
And simiBmlar in shape and girth were the children of the earth.
They looked like.D.. two girls rolled up in Gone.
And the chAildren of the moon
Were like a forkBm shoved on a spoon.
They were part C#msun, part earth, part Bmdaughter, part Ason.
DMmmmm.G.. The origin of love D G
[Refrain]
Now the Dgods grew quite scared
Of our Bm7strength and defiance
And Thor saidAsus4, "I'm gonna kill them all with my hammer,
G/DLike I killed the giants."
And Zeus said, "No, you Gbetter let me
Use my lightning like scissors,
Like I cut the Dlegs off the whales, dinosaurs and the lizards."
Then he D/F#grabbed up some bolts
And he Glet out a laugh,
Said, "I'll split them Emright down the middle.
Gonna cut 'em A7right up in half."
And then Gstorm cloudsA gathered aboDve
Into great balls of Gfire
[Bridge]
And then fiBmre shot down from the sky in Gbolts
Like shining blades of a knife.
And it Bmripped right through the flesh
Of the children of the Gsun and the moon and the earth.
And some Indian Bmgod sewed the wound up into a hole
Pulled it round to our belly to reGmind us of the price we pay.
And OsBmiris and the gods of the Nile
Gathered up a big Gstorm
To blow a hurriEmcane,
To scatter us aBmway,
In a flood of wind and Grain,
And a sea of tidal Emwaves,
To wash us all awBmay,
And if we don't beGhave
They'll cut us down agEmain
And we'll be hoAbpping round on Gone foot
DAnd looking through one Geye.

[Verse 3]
DLast time I saw you
We had Bm7just split in two.
You were Glooking at me.
I was loAoking at you.
You had a Dway so familiar,
But I Bm7could not recognize,
'Cause you had Gblood on your face;
I had Ablood in my eyes.
But I Dswear by your expression
That the Bm7pain down in your soul
Was the Gsame as the one down in Amine.
That's the Dpain,
Cuts a strBm7aight line down through the heGart;
We call it Alove.
We wrapped our Darms around each other,
Trying to shove ourBm7selves back together.
We were making loGve,
Making Alove.
It was a Dcold dark evening, such a longBm7 time ago,
When by the Gmighty hand of AJove,
It was a sadD story how we became lBm7onely two-legged creatures,
That Gstory, the origin of Alove.
That's the origin of lDove. G(Aw yeah!)
[Outro]
The origin of Dlove G
The origin of Dlove G
