A Glorious Dawn

Em Cadd9 I’m not very good at singing songs, but eh, Em Cadd9 Here’s a try. Em Cadd9 Oh, oh, ooh, Em Cadd9 Oh, oh, ooh, Em Cadd9 If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, Em Cadd9 You must first invent the universe. Em Cadd9 Space is filled with a network of wormholes, Em You might emerge somewhere else in space, Cadd9 Some when-else in time. Em The sky calls to us, Cadd9 If we do not destroy ourselves, Em C We will one day venture to the stars. C A still more glorious dawn awaits, Em Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise, C Em A morning filled with 400 billion suns, D/F# Em The rising of the milky way. Em Cadd9 The Cosmos is full beyond measure of elegant truths, Em Of exquisite interrelationships, Cadd9 Of the awesome machinery of nature. Em I believe our future depends powerfully, Cadd9 On how well we understand this cosmos, Em In which we float like a mote of dust, Cadd9 In the morning sky. Em But the brain does much more than just recollect, Em It inter-compares, it synthesizes, it analyzes, Am It generates abstractions. Em The simplest thought like the concept of the number one, Em Has an elaborate logical underpinning, Em The brain has its own language, Am C For testing the structure and consistency of the world. C A still more glorious dawn awaits, Em Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise, C Em A morning filled with 400 billion suns, D/F# Em The rising of the milky way. Em The sky calls to us, Cadd9 If we do not destroy ourselves, Em C Em C We will one day venture to the stars. Em Cadd9 Em Cadd9 Em For thousands of years, Cadd9 People have wondered about the universe, Em Did it stretch out forever, Cadd9 Or was there a limit. Em From the big bang to black holes, Cadd9 From dark matter to a possible big crunch, Em Our image of the universe today, Cadd9 Is full of strange sounding ideas. Verse 11 Em How lucky we are to live in this time, Cadd9 The first moment in human history, Em C When we are in fact visiting other worlds. C A still more glorious dawn awaits, Em Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise, C Em A morning filled with 400 billion suns, D/F# The rising of the milky way, C A still more glorious dawn awaits, Em Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise, C Em A morning filled with 400 billion suns, D/F# Em The rising of the milky way. Em Cadd9 The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean, Em Recently we've waded a little way out, Cadd9 And the water seems inviting. Em
