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
