When the e[D]arth was still flat
And the c[D/B]louds made of fire
And mou[Aadd9]ntains stretched up to the sky
[G] Sometimes higher
[G] Folks roamed the earth like big rolling kegs
They had t[D]wo sets of arms, they had two sets of legs
They had t[F#m]wo faces peering out of one giant head
So they could[Em] watch all around them
[A]As they talked while they read
And they ne[G]ver knew no[A]thing of l[D]ove
It was before[G] [A] the origin of lo[D]ve[G]
The origin of lo[D]ve[G]
And there were thr[Bm]ee sexes then, one of them looked like two men glued up back to back
Called the children of the s[G]un
And si[D]milar in shape and girth were the children of the earth
They looked like t[D]wo girls rolled up in o[G]ne
And the ch[A]ildren of the moon
Were like a f[Bm]ork stuck on a spoon
They were pa[C#m]rt sun part earth
Part daughter part son[A]
The o[D]rigin of lov[G]e[D] [G]
Now the g[D]ods grew quite scared
Of our s[D/B]trength and defiance
And Thor sai[G]d, "I'm gonna kill 'em all [G]with my hammer
Like [G]I killed the [G]giants."
A[G]nd Zeus said, "No, you'd better let me
Use my l[D]ightning like scissors
Like I cut the l[D]egs off the whales, dinosaurs and the l[D]izards
Then he g[F#m]rabbed up some bolts
And he l[G]et out a laugh
Said, "I'll split them r[Em]ight dowm the middle
Gonna cut 'em r[A]ight up in half."
And the s[G]torm clouds[A] gathered abo[D]ve
Into great balls of fi[G]re
And then fi[Bm]re shot down from the sky in bolts
Like shining blades of a kn[G]ife
And it rip[Bm]ped right through the flesh
Of the children of the sun and the moon and the [G]earth
And some indian[Bm] god sewed the wound up to a hole
Pulled it around to our belly to rem[G]ind us the price we paid
And Os[Bm]iris and the gods of the nile
Gathered up a big s[G]torm
To blow a hurri[Em]cane
To scatter us a[Bm]way
In a flood of wind and [G]rain
And a sea of tidal w[Em]aves
To wash us all a[Bm]way
And if we don't be[G]have
They'll cut us down a[Em]gain
And we'll be h[Ab]opping 'round on one foo[G]t
[D]and looking through one eye[G]
[D]Last time I saw you
We'd j[Bm]ust split in two
You were l[G]ooking at me
I was l[A]ooking at you
And you had a w[D]ay so familiar
I c[Bm]ould not recognize
Cuz you had b[G]lood on your face
I had b[A]lood in my eyes
But I s[D]wear by your expression
That the p[Bm]ain down in your soul
Was the s[G]ame as the one down in m[A]ine
That's the p[D]ain
That cuts a s[Bm]traight line down through the h[G]eart
We call it l[A]ove
We wrapped our a[D]rms 'round each other
Tried to shove o[Bm]urselves back together
We were making l[G]ove making lo[A]ve
It was a c[D]old dark evening such a l[Bm]ong time ago
When by the m[G]ighty hand of J[A]ove
It was a s[D]ad story how we became l[Bm]onely two-legged creatures
The s[G]tory of the origin of lo[A]ve
D G D G D G...
That's the origin of love
