[Verse 1]
     F5           G5     F5
This first and elemental flesh
             G5      F5
Both man and woman – falls awake
                        G5        F5
From void and darkness, frost and flame
              G5      F5
From sleeping Ymir, a world to make
 
 
[Verse 2]
    Bb5                 Eb5
The wordless voice, the scream, the howl
     Bb5     Ab5       Bb5
Pure essence fills new earth and sky
          Db5     Eb5
Ancestral form of myth and legend
Bb5     Ab5     Bb5
Giants, gods to glorify
 
 
[Verse 3]
F5             G5      F5   G5
Father, mother to them all
            G5     F5
The bleak betrayal comes to pass
                    G5      F5
As daughters, sons, bad families
             G5       F5
Are cut from stone to break like glass
 
 
[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
Bb5                Db5 Eb5
I dream of spaces, emptiness
Bb5     Ab5     Bb5
Deserts golden, endless dome
        Db5             Eb5
Dome of blue with white clouds scudding
Bb5    Ab5 Bb5
Folded origami, home
 
 
[Verse 5]
F5      G5     F5
Home to all creation, vistas
           G5        F5
Of foreign lands. We conjure ghosts
                    G5       F5
Of pre-birth state, primal recall
          G5         F5
The calm amongst the heavenly hosts
