Intro: G  
CGome in close now it's time to tell the story
Long ago, and so many years before we
AmEver were, ever dreamed we even could be
ThDere was her and her very first heartbeat
GAll alone in a corner of the night sky
Spiral bones of a supernova starlight
FAmell in love with another burning bright
D(C)
She dreamed of a way to ignite she said
TGonight
Come on, come on collAmide
Break me to pieces DI
I think you're just like heaven
WhGy, come on, come on collAmide
Let's see what a fire feels lDike
I bet it's just like heavGen
Just like heaven
Just like heaven
SGuch a shame nowhere near even a near miss
Light years away from the hope of being sun-kissed
AmAnchored home in her interstellar sea but
PDoor lonely Cassiopeia
SGo she sighs and she burns with desperation
Learns to cry over love of constellations
TAmhen a spark from a star shooting too close
D(C)
They both smiled "What a day to explode"
She said
TGonight
Come on, come on collAmide
Break me to pieces DI
I think you're just like heaven
WhGy, come on, come on collAmide
Let's see what a fire feels lDike
I bet it's just like heavGen
Just like heaven
Just like heaven
LGong ago in a sky built before us
A supernova grew up to be stardust
End on G
