The Tree of Life Lyrics & Tabs by Terra Lumina
The Tree of Life
guitar chords lyrics
It all started with a molecule
Four billion years ago
In the early open oceans and tidepools
Before the life that we have come to know
Insects, trees, and animals
Life began in a soup of chemicals
If you let millions and millions of years pass
Through the tree of life you'll come to us at last
Evolution takes its time and slowly
Works its wild ways with endless beauty
Evolution tells the greatest story
It's the way all life on earth has come to be
A simple start to everything
A single-cell would come to bring
Trilobites and other living things
A simple start to everything
A single-cell would come to bring
Trilobites and other living things
In the time of Cambrian
Life saw an explosion
From single-cell to multi-cell
And multi-cell to animal
And animals began to crawl the land
Then came the dinosaurs
With dominance and mighty roars
Who ruled the land for a hundred million years
Then came an asteroid
Almost all life was destroyed
A quarter million years ago
The ancestors of you and I
The people you have grown to know
Had finally arrived
With our eyes and with our minds
We learned so many things
Looked deep within our past to learn
Of how we came to be
