Glass of milk, standing in between extinction in the cold

      B                 E   /   A /
And explosive radiating growth.

        E   /     A   /
So the warm blood flows

            E  /       A    /    F#
Through the large four-chambered heart,

A   E(G#)  /    F#m  E  /   A   /    E(G#)  /  B
Maintaining the very high metabolism rate they have

But you're reminded that it once was there

F#m   /  F#m(E) /  D /  A  /
From the embryonic whale

        B              E / A /
To the monkey with no tail.

        E   /     A   /
So the warm blood flows

Through the large four-chambered heart



Chorus:
