How did it start? Did I fall into a nuclear  reactor? 
B              Em           B          C 
Crawl out with acid skin or somethin' worse 
          Am G    D 
A hostile alien ambassador? 
B       Em      B      C         Am      G        D 
Or am I simply another of the universe's failed experiments? 
       B     Em         B       C      Am 
Either way, I have been wonderin' just how it is (How it is)

[Verso 2]

D           Am       C        G 
Thrust into bein', careenin' along 
     Em      F         C 
On a crooked little trajectory 
D             Am          C       G 
Dissolvin' in movement, a body in orbit 
     Em           F          C 
Or a roach on his way to the gutter

The tail of a comet burned up in an instant, the destruction of matter

There's no object to be seen in the supercollider 
       G             D             Am        C 
Just a light in the tunnel and whatever gets scattered 
          G              D          Am         C 
Life flashin' before the eye of whatever comes after 
    G            D           Am 
The force of our impact, the fission 
    C           G           D        Am       C 
The hum of our contact, the sound of our collisions
