Cassiopeia by Sara Bareilles
from the album The Blessed Unrest
Capo on the 6th fret
[C]Come in close now, it's t[C]ime to tell a story
[C]Long ago and so m[C]any years before we
[Dm]Ever were, ever d[Dm]reamed we even could be
[Em]There was [G]her and her v[G]ery first heartbeat
[C]All alone in the co[C]rner of the night sky
[C]Spiral bones of a s[C]upernova starlight
[Dm]Fell in love with a[Dm]nother burning bright
She d[Em]reamed o[G]f a way to ignite
She said, "[C]Tonight, co[C]me on, come on, coll[Dm]ide
Break me to pieces, [G]I, I think you're just like heaven
W[C]hy, c[C]ome on, come on, col[Dm]lide
Let's [Dm]see what a fire feels l[G]ike
I bet it's j[G]ust like heaven"
[C](Just like heaven)
[C](Just like heaven)
[C]Such a shame, nowhere n[C]ear, even a near miss
[C]Light years away from the h[C]ope of being sun-kissed
[Dm]Anchored home in her i[Dm]nterstellar sea
But, p[Em]oor l[G]onely Cassiopeia
[C]So she sighs and she b[C]urns with desperation
[C]Learns to cry over l[C]ove of constellations
[Dm]Then the spark from a s[Dm]tar shooting too close
They b[Em]oth sm[G]iled, what a day to explode
She said, "[C]Tonight, co[C]me on, come on, coll[Dm]ide
Break me to pieces, [G]I, I think you're just like heaven
W[C]hy, c[C]ome on, come on, col[Dm]lide
Let's [Dm]see what a fire feels l[G]ike
I bet it's j[G]ust like heaven"
[C](Just like heaven)
[C](Just like heaven)
[C]Long ago in a s[C]ky built before us
A s[C]upernova grew [C]up to be stardust
