[Verse 1]
         D
When the earth was still flat
        D/B
And the clouds made of fire
    Asus4                             G
And mountains stretched up to the sky
Sometimes higher
G
Folks roamed the earth like big rolling kegs
         D
They had two sets of arms, they had two sets of legs
        F#m                       G
They had two faces peering out of one giant head
             Em
So they could watch all around them
       A
As they talked while they read
             G         A       D
And they never knew nothing of love
             G  A                  D     G
It was before   oh, the origin of love
               D   G
The origin of love
[Verse 2]
              Bm                                                              D
Now there was three sexes then, one that looked like two men glued up back to back
                                G
They called the children of the sun
         Bm
And similar in shape and girth was the children of the earth
                D                       G
They looked like two girls rolled up in one
          A
And the children of the moon
            Bm
Was like a fork stuck on a spoon
               C#m
They were part sun part earth
                   A   D
Part daughter part son
    G                  D G
Ooh, the origin of love
[Verse 3]
        D
Now the gods grew quite scared
      D/B
Of our strength and defiance
              Asus4                                   G
And Thor said, "I'm gonna kill 'em all with my hammer
Like I killed the giants."
G
But Zeus said, "No, you'd better let me
G
Use my lightning like scissors
                D
Like I cut the legs off the whales, dinosaurs into lizards
            F#m
And then he grabbed up some bolts
       G
And he let out a laugh
                       Em
Said, "I'll split them right dowm the middle
              A
Gonna cut 'em right up in half."
          G          A          D
And the storm clouds gathered above
                    G
Into great balls of fire
[Bridge]
           Bm                             G
And then fire shot down from the sky in bolts
Like shining blades of a knife
          Bm
And it ripped right through the flesh
                        G
Of the children of the sun and the moon and the earth
                 Bm
And some indian god sewed the wound up to a hole
                                   G
Pulled it round to our belly to remind us the price we paid
      Bm
And Osiris and the gods of the nile
                       G
Gathered up a big storm
               Em
To blow a hurricane
               Bm
To scatter us away
                       G
In a flood of wind and rain
                    Em
And a sea of tidal waves
                Bm
To wash us all away
                  G
And if we don't behave
                     Em
They'll cut us down again
             Ab                G        D
And we'll be hopping 'round on one foot
                        G
and looking through one eye
[Verse 4]
    D
The last time I saw you
     Bm
We'd just split in two
        G
You was looking at me
      A
I was looking at you
          D
You had a way so familiar
  Bm
I could not recognize
           G
Cuz you had blood on your face
     A
I had blood in my eyes
            D
But I could swear by your expression
          Bm
That the pain down in your soul
          G                      A
Was the same as the one down in mine
            D
That's the pain
            Bm                               G
That cuts a straight line down through the heart
            A
We call it love
                D
We wrapped our arms 'round each other
                  Bm
Tried to shove ourselves back together
               G            A
We were making love, making love
         D                         Bm
It was a cold dark evening such a long time ago
            G               A
When by the mighty hand of Jove
         D                       Bm
It was a sad story how we became lonely two-legged creatures
    G                       A
The story of the origin of love
                         D
That's the origin of love
   G
Oh yeah
               D  G
The origin of love
               D  G
The origin of love
               D
The origin of love
