Capo on 1st Fret!
[Chorus]
D A D G A D
Woah arrow of entropic time
A D G A
Woah arrow of entropic
[Verse 1]
D A G A
If you made a scrambled egg tonight
D A E A
There'd be no return to yolk and white
F# Bm
And when it's fried you
A7 D D7
Can't turn it back to raw food
G Em A D
That is the arrow of entropic time
[Verse 2]
D A G A
Structure decomposes til it's gone
D A E A
Hot spots cool and entropy grows on
F# Bm
My room was cleaner
A7 D D7
Now looks like Godzilla's been there
G Em A D
Not my fault; blame it on entropic time
[Chorus]
D A D G A D
Woah arrow of entropic time
A D G A
Woah arrow of entropic
[Verse 3]
D A G A
Stars explode and leaves turn brown and fall
D A E A
That's thermodynamics' second Law
F# Bm
But from a deep view
A7 D D7
That doesn't need to be true
G Em A D
Time symmetry precludes entropic time
[Bridge]
A Bm
Maybe this won't last very long
F#7
Our cosmos's light
D
A fluctuation
A Bm
In that case it's probable we are
E7
A brain without a jar
A
Decomposed in a moment
[Verse 4]
D A G A
Who knows if that's true and I'll be gone
D A E A
Thermalized before you hear this song
F# Bm
I'll take my chances
A7 D D7
Though I can't disprove these answers
G Em A D
That there's a reason for entropic time
[Bridge]
A Bm
One must go right back to the start
F#7 D
The order from whence all things fell apart
A Bm
All life hinges on the state that was
E7
We hope to find its cause
A
But it's more than we know now
[Verse 5]
D A G A
Maybe there's a time-symmetric space
D A E A
Birthing big bangs all over the place
F# Bm
That then disperse as
A7 D D7
New baby universes
G Em A D
With their own direction of entropic time
[Chorus]
D A D G A D
Woah arrow of entropic time
A D G A D
Woah arrow of entropic time
A D G A D
Woah arrow of entropic time
A D G A D
Woah arrow of entropic time
