Cassiopeia chords by Sara Bareilles

Submitted by: Piper

Capo on the 6th fret

C                        C
Come in close now, it's time to tell a story
C                C
Long ago and so many years before we
Dm               Dm
Ever were, ever dreamed we even could be
Em        G            G
There was her and her very first heartbeat
C                  C
All alone in the corner of the night sky
C                  C
Spiral bones of a supernova starlight
Dm                 Dm
Fell in love with another burning bright
     Em      G
She dreamed of a way to ignite

           C          C                   Dm
She said, "Tonight, come on, come on, collide
                    G
Break me to pieces, I, I think you're just like heaven
 C    C                    Dm
Why, come on, come on,  collide
      Dm                     G
Let's see what a fire feels like
            G
I bet it's just like heaven"
C
(Just like heaven)
C
(Just like heaven)

C                      C
Such a shame, nowhere near, even a near miss
C                          C
Light years away from the hope of being sun-kissed
Dm                    Dm
Anchored home in her interstellar sea
      Em   G
But, poor lonely Cassiopeia
C                     C
So she sighs and she burns with desperation
C                   C
Learns to cry over love of constellations
Dm                     Dm
Then the spark from a star shooting too close
      Em    G
They both smiled, what a day to explode
           C          C                   Dm
She said, "Tonight, come on, come on, collide
                    G
Break me to pieces, I, I think you're just like heaven
 C    C                    Dm
Why, come on, come on,  collide
      Dm                     G
Let's see what a fire feels like
            G
I bet it's just like heaven"
C
(Just like heaven)
C
(Just like heaven)

C              C
Long ago in a sky built before us
   C             C
A supernova grew up to be stardust
